  • Watch Online / Juan y Medio (2008)



    Desc: Juan y Medio: Directed by Birgit Vogt, Constanze Witt. 'Juan y Medio' is a restaurant on the Panamericana Highway, south of Santiago de Chile, named after its founder, a man "as tall as one and a half." It became famous in the whole country in the 1950s for its great, cheap food. Juan had five children and when he retired in the early 1970s the family broke apart because of the fight over inheritance, but also for political reasons after Pinochet came to power. The five brothers and sisters couldn't talk about what happened until the director of this movie, the great-granddaughter of "Juan y Medio," returned to Chile to bring them together again after more than 30 years.
