Maqui (Aristotelia Chilensis): A small evergreen tree native to the temperate rainforests of Southern Chile.

Maqui Films is a production studio featuring the work of Chilean filmmaker Fernando Saldivia Yáñez. Developing a practice that explores the poetry of daily life, Fernando has released two feature-length films and a number of short films set in both Chile and the United States. More recently, Fernando has partnered with animation producer Ignacio Cavieres Maragaño to expand Maqui Films’ practice to new collaborations. The music video Chungunga Surf (2026), directed by Sebastián Platz, is the first result of these partnerships.
