This article analyzes the internationalization process of the Chilean cinema of the last decade in relation to international film festivals. Based on a multi-situated ethnographic research conducted during this period, the text analyses how recent Chilean cinema has internationalized its modes of production and circulation, aspiring to become a global art cinema thanks to the articulation of local policies with the international trends of contemporary cinema. The article focuses on the participation of Chilean professionals in the festival circuit, discussing its role in the internationalization of small and peripheral national cinemas.
