Чилийн найруулагчийн гэр бүл нас барсныг нь баасан гарагт мэдээлсэн ч шалтгааныг тодруулаагүй байна.
«A Fantastic Woman» киногоороо 2018 онд Олон улсын шилдэг киноны Оскарын шагнал хүртсэн Чилийн найруулагч Себастьян Лелио 52 насандаа Сантьяго хотод таалал төгсжээ. Гэр бүлийнхэн нь инстаграм хуудсандаа эрүүл мэндийн шалтгаанаар нас барсныг мэдэгдсэн ч шалтгааныг нь дэлгэрүүлээгүй байна. Тэд Лелиог Чилийн соёлд үнэтэй хувь нэмэр оруулсан хүн хэмээн дурсжээ.
Даниэла Вега гол дүрд нь тоглосон «A Fantastic Woman» кинонд найз залуугаа алдсан зөөгч, шөнийн клубын дуучны амьдралыг өгүүлдэг. Энэ нь Чилийн хүртсэн хоёр дахь Оскар бөгөөд өмнө нь «Bear Story» хүүхэлдэйн богино хэмжээний кино 2016 онд шагнал хүртэж байв. Лелиогийн бусад бүтээлд «Gloria», «The Wave», «The Wonder», «Disobedience», «The Year of the Tiger» багтдаг бөгөөд тэрээр Жулианна Мур, Рэйчел Вайс, Флоренс Пью нартай хамтран ажиллажээ.
Вега инстаграмдаа найруулагчийг уран яруу үгээр дурсан, түүнийг алдсаны дараах уй гашуугаа илэрхийлсэн байна. Лелиогийн «Gloria Bell» кинонд тоглосон Мур түүнийг өдөр тутмын амьдралын өчүүхэн нарийн зүйлсийг анзаарч чаддаг, энэрэнгүй уран бүтээлч хэмээн дурсжээ. Жүжигчин тэрээр Лелиотой хамт кино хийхээр тохиролцсон мөчөө гэрэл зургаар тэмдэглэж байснаа мөн хуваалцсан байна.
«Disobedience» кинонд тоглосон Алессандро Нивола Лелиог агуу найруулагч төдийгүй халуун дулаан, ухаалаг найз байсан хэмээн дурссан бол түүний хамтрагч, жүжигчин Амалиа Кассаи хайр нь үргэлж үлдэнэ гэж бичжээ. Лелио есдүгээр сард Алехандро Самбрагийн номоос сэдэвлэсэн «Poeta Chileno» киноны зураг авалтыг эхлүүлсэн байв. Тэрээр Аргентины Мендоса хотод төрж, хоёр настайдаа Чилид нүүсэн бөгөөд кино сургуульд элсэхээсээ өмнө сэтгүүл зүйгээр нэг жил суралцжээ.

Oscar-winning Chilean filmmaker Sebastián Lelio, whose acclaimed drama A Fantastic Woman broke ground with its portrayal of a transgender woman, has died in Santiago, Chile, at 52.
His family announced his death Friday in an Instagram post, citing health reasons but not specifying the cause.
“His memory will remain forever among us,” the family said. “He was a beautiful person who contributed to Chilean culture in great moments of its history.”
Lelio won the 2018 Academy Award for Best International Feature Film for A Fantastic Woman. The film starred trans actor Daniela Vega as a waitress and nightclub singer whose life is torn by the death of her boyfriend.
It was Chile’s second Academy Award, following the animated short Bear Story in 2016.
Lelio’s other films include Gloria, The Wave, The Wonder, Disobedience and The Year of the Tiger. Throughout his career, he collaborated with Julianne Moore, Rachel Weisz and Florence Pugh.
In a poetic tribute on Instagram, Daniela Vega wrote:
“I can’t find the light switch on the wall. I can’t find the wall either.
“There don’t seem to be any windows. There don’t seem to be any doors.
“I find fragments, rubble. I arrange them with full stops, commas and accents.
“I want to ask nothing.
“The verb passed into the past participle, receiving your name, honours from the gerund in our memory.

“For now, my hands pile up letters in the rubble of what light remains, and I soak a wick, setting it before your memory.
“My silence.”
Julianne Moore, who starred in Leilo’s 2018 film Gloria Bell, paid her tributes by writing:
“When Sebastian Lelio and I met we took a polaroid to commemorate the moment we decided to make a movie together. He said he would only do it if I did it and I said I would only do it if he did it. Working with him was one of the most beautiful experiences of my career. Sebastian was thoughtful, tender, joyful, and empathetic. A thoroughly exacting filmmaker, he managed to capture the minute details of everyday life, nothing escaped his notice.I hope he knew how much the world loved his point of view and how seen we felt by him in his movies. We have lost such a beautiful person. My deepest condolences to Amalia, his family, and all of us who loved him so much.”
Alessandro Nivola, who starred in Disobedience, wrote: “Goodbye to my dear friend Sebastian Lelio. A great director but just as great a man. Passionate, intelligent, gentle, encouraging. Attuned to the tiniest details of human behavior and the intangible elements of love. I can’t believe he’s gone. RIP.”
Meanwhile, Leilo’s partner, actor Amalia Kassai said in her own tribute: “I love you in this life and in all the lives to come. He illuminated everything and everything around him … Only love remains.”
Lelio had already begun filming Poeta Chileno , based on the book by Alejandro Zambra, in September.
He was born in the Argentine city of Mendoza and moved to Chile at the age of 2. He studied journalism for a year before enrolling at the Chilean Film School.
