Images of a Dictatorship (Spanish: Imageries de una dictatur) is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Patricio Henríquez and released in 1999.[1] Culled from the archives of Chilean news videographer Raul Cuevas, the film is a portrait of life in Chile during the military dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet.[2]

The film premiered at the 1999 Montreal World Film Festival.[3] It was subsequently screened at the 2000 Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival, where it won the award for Best Political Documentary.[4]

The film won the Jutra Award for Best Documentary Film at the 2nd Jutra Awards in 2000,[5] as well as that year's M. Joan Chalmers Documentarian Award for Film and Video.[6]
