He also presented his first literary work, Memories of the Future, a collection of 45 short stories that narrate the key moments of his life during his time in the world of film and television. 

"Presenting my book in the land where I was born artistically is a return to the initial starting point," Allende said.

In one of his stories, Allende writes about his experience during the filming of Maria (1972), based on the novel by Jorge Isaacs, and filmed in Colombia's Valle del Cauca, a place that Fernando remembers fondly. 

"I will never forget those beautiful sunrises in Valle del Cauca and the beautiful hacienda of 'El Paraiso.'"
