Surprising "Star Wars" exhibit to come to Chile

SANTIAGO.- Chilean Star Wars fans are counting the days until they will be able to experience one of the most exciting events related to the epic. From March 5th until May 31st, the most important exhibition of the George Lucas films will be presented for the first time in Chile.

"Star Wars: The Exhibition" will arrive at Espacio Kennedy (next to Parque Arauco) after touring several international capital cities. The exhibit includes 250 original pieces from the movies -certified by the director himself- that will reveal secrets about the production of the films.

The exhibition –which has been displayed in New York, Paris, Tokyo, Brussels, London, Lisbon and Sao Paulo- has attracted more than 6 million fans, who have enjoyed seeing full-size space aircrafts and vehicles, as well as original film costumes, drawings and scale models.

The display is divided into approximately nine settings with different visual and audio effects that allow visitors to feel the sensation of being in outer space. There is even a Jedi School for children.
