The Memory of Water - Film Screening

A moment of inattention is all it took to change the lives of Javier and Amanda forever: lives that are now divided between "before" and "after", between how everything was and should have been. All because of an accident that neither of them could have prevented. It will take a long time to reach closure on the death of their four-year-old son. Amanda can't bear the daily ache of seeing her home - and Javier. Everything reminds her of her child, and so she decides to leave her husband and plunge into her work as an interpreter, while Javier, who continues to work as an architect, can't accept the separation and seems unable to face the loss of his son.

2015 Chilean Drama Film written and directed by  Matias Bize. It was screened in the Venice Days section at the 72nd Venice International Film Festival. It won the Colón de Oro for best director at the 2015 Festival de Cine Iberoamericano de Huelva (Spain).

We’re Turning 100!


To mark our centennial in the fall of 2024, the Maxwell School will hold special events and engagement opportunities to celebrate the many ways—across disciplines and borders—our community ever strives to, as the Oath says, “transmit this city not only not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.”

Throughout the year leading up to the centennial, engagement opportunities will be held for our diverse, highly accomplished community that now boasts more than 38,500 alumni across the globe.
