A third Ruiz film, "Socialist Realism as One of the Fine Arts", is currently being restored and completed by Sarmiento for an official premiere in 2021. Ruiz was not able to give the film a final edit as a result of the Chilean coup in 1973 and it was presumed lost for many years. A fifty-minute rough cut was shown at the Valdivia International Film Festival in 2008, but four-and-a-half hours of footage was recovered from the archives of Duke University in 2016.
