Directed by Patricio Guzmán
Guzmán was 13-years-old and living in Valparaiso, Chile when he discovered Daniel Defoe's novel "Robinson Crusoe." In 1999, he made Robinson Crusoe Island on the real Robinson Island off the coast of Chile, which he had long believed fictitious. A meditation on the legend and odyssey of Crusoe as contrasted with the actual island, the film is also a travelogue of Guzman's adventures there.
