Film synopsis: February 2009 marked 10 years since Hugo Chavez took
office, following a landslide election victory, and launched his
revolution to bring radical change to Venezuela. While wildly popular with
many in the country, Chavez's policies and his outspoken criticisms of the
U.S. government have made him powerful enemies, both at home and abroad,
especially in the media. Filmed in Caracas in November 2008, on the eve of
the 10th anniversary of Chavez's controversial presidency, this
feature-length documentary takes a journey into the heart of Venezuela's
revolution to listen to the voices of the people driving the process
forward.

Best Bolivarian wishes!
