We are still so elated after The Mole Agent’s special night at the Oscars. Sergio Chamy, our beloved detective and stellar protagonist of 2The Mole Agent” summed up his feelings after the ceremony ended.

We are saddened by the death of two icons of Chilean theater and film: Óscar Castro (1947-2021) actor and playwright who left a legacy marked by exile cinema and Siboney Lo Chávez (1978-2021), winner of the Palme d’Or of Cine de Latino de Miami as best Latin American actress in 2003, for her role in El Leyton by Gonzalo Justiniano. These two great actors leave an inescapable legacy, which we will miss and honor forever.
