While filming in Sierra Gorda, Chile, the local mayor, Carlos Lopez, staged a protest because he was angry at the filmmakers' portrayal of the Antofagasta region as part of Bolivia. He was arrested, detained briefly, and put on trial two days later. EON dismissed his claim that they needed his permission to film in the area.[64][65] Michael G. Wilson also explained Bolivia was appropriate to the plot, because of the country's history of water problems,[63] and was surprised the two countries disliked each other a century after the War of the Pacific.[66] In a poll by Chilean daily newspaper La Segunda, 75% of its readers disagreed with Lopez's actions, due to the negative image they felt it presented of Chile, and the controversy's potential to put off productions looking to film in the country in the future.[67]
