Augusto Góngora, the journalist, author and television host documented in the Sundance winning film The Eternal Memory, is being mourned in his native Chile after his death at 71.
The film’s Oscar-nominated director, Maite Alberdi, confirmed to Deadline that Góngora succumbed to complications of Alzhemier’s on May 19. The Eternal Memory, winner of the Grand Jury Prize for World Documentary at Sundance, chronicles the love story between the journalist and his wife, actress and academic Paulina Urrutia. “La Pauli,” as Góngora referred to his partner, took care of him after he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s at 62.
“It was unexpectedly painful” to learn of Góngora’s death, Alberdi told Deadline. “People tell you that Alzheimer’s is a slow death. So you think that you are prepared because you have been living for many years with the disappearance of that person. But it was as unexpected as any other [person’s passing]. It was really, really painful for me, for Paulina, for their friends.”
Following word of Góngora’s death, Chilean President Gabriel Boric praised him as “a great journalist who brought the culture of our country to the highest level.” In an interview on Chilean television, Minister of Culture Jaime de Aguirre called his death “a huge loss… His work, his life were key to the recent history of our country.”
After his diagnosis, Góngora made the decision to publicly reveal his condition. In a similar spirit, he and his partner Urrutia agreed to allow Alberdi to document the loving bond they maintained even as the disease inexorably progressed, gradually reducing his physical capacities and cognitive function.
“He understood so deeply that his role was to communicate, and he was very conscious of that,” Alberdi
