The Strong Ones
The Strong Ones (Spanish: "Los fuertes") is a 2019 Chilean film directed by Omar Zúñiga Hidalgo and starring Samuel González and Antonio Altamirano.

The movie is based on the original short film San Cristóbal, winner of the Teddy Award 2015 in the Berlin International Film Festival. González and Altamirano, the protagonists in the short film, reprised their roles in the full-length film.

"The Strong Ones" was released in 2019 as the opening film of the Valdivia International Film Festival. Then, it participated in several international festivals like OutFest and Mardi Gras Film Festival. It received theatrical release on 12 March 2020 in Chile; however, the COVID-19 pandemic suspended most of cinemas a few days later. Finally, it was released for free in the Ondamedia streaming platform on 21 August 2020.

The movie was filmed in the city of Valdivia and neighboring Niebla, where an old Spanish fortress is used as background for the romance between the two protagonists. "Los fuertes", the original name in Spanish, is a pun using the plural of "fuerte", which can mean "strong" and "fortress".
