Francisco Javier Rodríguez's Jaime is now showing exclusively on Mubi starting April 5, 2023, in the series Brief Encounters.I met Jaime when I placed a camera in one of the administrative offices at the psychiatric wing of San Fernando’s public hospital; a small rural city in Chile’s sixth region.As I didn’t have formal authorization to film inside the hospital at the time, we devised a sort of “confessional room” where people could talk in front of the camera as they pleased.I was back in Chile for the first time since my father’s death four years before, and I found myself scraping for memories in the form of objects that belonged to him, while the rest of my family had already moved on. Jaime came to talk to us on the very first day. He had arrived at that hospital many years back after a...

With the 2021 Grammys just around the corner on March 14, the question on everyone’s mind is who will come out on top. Especially this year, with award shows seemingly harder to predict than ever (we’re looking at you Andra Day and Alejandro Sanz), a couple of artists could potentially take home more awards than expected, while others may underperform.
Scoring nine nominations this year including Record of the Year (twice) and Song of the Year, it’s safe to say Beyoncé has to win something at least. Her best bets are probably in genre categories, with “Black Parade” leading the odds for Best R&b Song and Best R&b Performance, as well as her Megan Thee Stallion collaboration “Savage” ahead so far in our predictions for Best Rap Performance.

The 63rd Annual Grammy Awards are held in 2021, but the eligibility period for these kudos celebrating the best in music actually started on September 1, 2019, ending on August 31, 2020. So who will win Album of the Year?
This eligibility period is new for the Grammys. The recording academy moved up their calendar in 2020 in response to the Oscars, which moved their ceremony up to early February, which was when the Grammys usually aired. So the Grammys shifted their telecast to early January and adopted an eligibility calendar that ended a month earlier.

But that’s not the only change the Grammys have undergone in recent years. For the 61st annual event held in 2019, the academy expanded its top four general field categories from five nominees to eight in part as a response to criticisms over a lack of diversity among the nominees and winners.

The eligibility period for the Grammys used to be October 1 through September 30, but they changed things for the 2020 awards.
