Summary
A critical examination of the reasons for the guerrilla struggle of the Armed Forces of National Liberation in Venezuela, beginning with the 1958 overthrow of dictator Perez Jimenez, and the flawed attempts at social reform by Romula Betancourt's government, to the 1962 emergence of the national liberation movement, the FALN which, failing to gain the support of the nation's poor, largely dissipated by the end of the decade. Incorporating archival footage and original scenes, the film also draws parallels with American foreign policy in other countries, particularly Vietnam.
