The Revolution Will Not Be Televised
Dirs. Kim Bartley and Donnacha O'Briain - 74 Minutes

Two independent filmmakers were inside the presidential palace on April 11, 2002, when Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez was forcibly removed from office. They were also present 48 hours later when, remarkably, he returned to power amid cheering aides. Their film records what was probably history's shortest-lived coup d'état. It's a unique document about political muscle and an extraordinary portrait of the man The Wall Street Journal credits with making Venezuela "Washington’s biggest Latin American headache after the old standby, Cuba."
