In Memoire des Apparances, Raul Ruiz combines a classic of Spanish literature with modern Chilean politics, and mixes in a few Hollywood archetypes for good measure. During the coup against Allende in the 70's, a literature professor is made to memorize a list of 15,000 rebels. He eases this complicated task by using a play he learned at school as a mnemonic device: Calderon de la Barca's Life is a Dream. A decade later, the professor realizes that he cannot conjure up the names because he cannot remember the play. He goes to a movie to calm his mind, and finds that the film evokes his own past as well as helping him recall the play.
