This year we were three Chilean projects selected in different pitches at Sunny Side of the Doc, a market perhaps not so well known in Chile, but which is very relevant. In fact, last year after our visit here, we obtained a co-production with Spain for a series that has already premiered on Spanish TV, called \u00abHope!\u00bb. And now we are leaving with a co-production with Holland for \u201cThe Letelier File\u201d and another co-production with Germany for a third project. We are very excited and grateful for these achievements and for all the support received from institutions such as Chiledoc\u00bb.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chiledoc.cl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Pitch-Expediente-Letelier-SSD-2025-1-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-7211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chiledoc.cl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Pitch-Expediente-Letelier-SSD-2025-1-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.chiledoc.cl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Pitch-Expediente-Letelier-SSD-2025-1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.chiledoc.cl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Pitch-Expediente-Letelier-SSD-2025-1-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.chiledoc.cl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Pitch-Expediente-Letelier-SSD-2025-1-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.chiledoc.cl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Pitch-Expediente-Letelier-SSD-2025-1.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.chiledoc.cl\/en\/unprecedented-three-chilean-documentaries-selected-for-pitches-at-sunny-side-of-the-doc\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">More information about Chilean participation in Sunny Side of the Doc 2025 <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/folders\/1U-3q25Qjy-btsJoeQby7v07qN8iLeeRB?usp=drive_link\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Link to press kit<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>PRESS CONTACT<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Natalia Raipan<\/strong><br \/>\nperiodista@ccdoc.cl <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Great news for Chilean documentary!
