Plot.
Mordant, self-aware, freighted with sensitivity toward Chile’s problem, wary of caricature, disposed toward consciousness of human fallibility, it is a deft blend of fiction and documentary set in the tumultuous days leading up to the election of Salvador Allende in 1970.

Wiki.
¡Qué hacer! is a 1972 Chilean-American drama film directed by Raúl Ruiz, Nina Serrano, and Saul Landau. According to co-director Nina Serrano, "The formal script in the first draft was written by Saul Landau, Raul Ruiz, and Jim Becket. But as the film was somewhat improvised the actors and I also added or molded the script as the filming went along." It was screened in the Directors' Fortnight section of the 1972 Cannes Film Festival.
