In the dark and intensely compelling, new animated short film, 9-11/9-11, American conceptual artist Mel Chin creates a tale of two cities... a tragedy of two times, weaving together a story of love and hope wrecked by overt and covert manipulations of power. 9-11/9-11 is presented as part of a global dialogue about the human impact of these collective traumas. The film is an international collaboration between Chin, American filmmaker Chip Schneider, and Chilean animation partners PlanoVisual Estudio de Animación in Santiago, Chile.

The voice cast includes American actress Lili Taylor (State of Mind, I Shot Andy Warhol, Dogfight), well-known Chilean satirist Juan Carlos "Palta" Melendez, and popular Chilean stars Sandro Larenas, and Rosario Zamora

The musical score follows the US/ Chile theme with original music by trumpeter Ben Neill (USA) and Juan Carlos Oyarzún (Chile). Additional music by Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Sigur Rós.

The film premiered on 9-11-2007 with a live videoconference linking Tribeca Cinemas in New York City with the Centro Cultural Palacio La Moneda in Santiago - a museum at the site of the 1973 military coup. Additional screenings took place the same day in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Houston.
