CHE PART I - THE ARGENTINE
On November 26, 1956, Fidel Castro sails to Cuba with eighty
rebels. One of those rebels is Ernesto "Che" Guevara, a
young Argentine idealist and doctor who shares a common goal
with Fidel Castro - to overthrow the corrupt dictatorship of
Fulgencio Batista.
Che proves himself an indispensable fighter, and quickly
grasps the art of guerrilla warfare. As he throws himself
into the struggle, Che is embraced by his comrades and the
Cuban people. THE ARGENTINE tracks Che's rise in the Cuban
Revolution, from doctor to commander to revolutionary hero.
CHE PART II - GUERILLA
After the Cuban Revolution, Che is at the height of his fame
and power. Then he disappears, re-emerging incognito in
Bolivia, where he organizes a small group of Cuban comrades
and Bolivian recruits to start the great Latin American
Revolution.
The story of the Bolivian campaign is a tale of tenacity,
sacrifice, idealism, and of guerrilla warfare that
ultimately fails, bringing Che to his death. Through this
story, we come to understand how Che remains a symbol of
idealism and heroism that lives in the hearts of people
around the world.
