Production

1976 was directed by Chilean filmmaker Manuela Martelli, who co-wrote the screenplay with Alejandra Moffat. Martelli had previously worked on the Chilean horror stop-motion animated film La casa lobo. With 1976, Martelli made her feature film directorial debut, while also having appeared in more than 15 films as an actress.

The film is set in 1976, the year when Martelli's maternal grandmother died, and she wanted to explore the experiences that told the story of a different reality through family videos shot with a Super-8 camera.

The lead role of the housewife Carmen is played by Aline Küppenheim, a Chilean theater, film, and television actress of French descent, considered one of the greatest performers in her home country. Küppenheim gained international recognition for her role in Sebastián Lelio's A Fantastic Woman. The film also stars Nicolás Sepúlveda, who plays the wounded man named Elías, and Hugo Medina, who plays Padre Sánchez.

Filming took place in the summer of 2021, partly in Las Cruces, a holiday resort in the Chilean coastal town/municipality of El Tabo in the Valparaíso region. Yarará Rodríguez served as the cinematographer, while the film's score was composed by Brazilian jazz and improvisational musician Mariá Portugal.
