Sumario:The aim of this article is to analyze the variations that realism presents in current Chilean cinema, based on the observation of a renewal of the new (of the 'novisimo' or very latest, in this case) that has as its characteristic an emergence or clash with the real, in the context of the current social and political context of Chile. We recognize this, first, in the use of the expressive materials of realism in the cinema and, secondly, through the immediacy with which the films appeal to, interpellate and interpret the present. Based on the four films Alejandro Fernández Almendras has released to date, we will explore these deviations and variations of realism in contemporary Chilean cinema.
