Marco Bechis (Santiago de Chile, Chile, October 24, 1955) is a Chilean-Italian screenwriter and film director. He is a survivor of the concentration camp âEl Club AtlĂ©ticoâ, where he was detained for 15 days in April 1977, during the Argentine military dictatorship. He was expelled to Italy, since he had a passport from that country. His film "Garage Olimpo", which talks about this dictatorship, was presented at the 1999 Cannes Film Festival.
