The Dark Side of the White Lady (Spanish: El lado obscuro de la dama blanca) is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Patricio Henríquez and released in 2006.[1] The film centres on the Esmeralda, a tall ship of the Chilean Navy which is seen as an important national symbol of Chile, but has a darker history of having been used as a prison ship for political prisoners during the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet.[1]

The film premiered at the 2006 Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival,[2] before going into wider commercial distribution in late 2006 and early 2007.[3] When the Esmeralda made a visit to Quebec City in 2009, the film received a special television broadcast on Télé-Québec.[4]

The film was shortlisted for the Jutra Award for Best Documentary Film at the 9th Jutra Awards in 2007.[5]
