Chávez: Venezuela's President Who Hated America

Chávez is a documentary based on the public and political life of the Venezuelan Ex-President from the day of the rebellion he commanded on February 4th, 1992 until his death on March 2013. In 1992, a paratrooper named Hugo Chávez failed to overthrow a government, only to emerge as a national figure with the defiant words, "Por Ahora" (For now). This feature-length documentary traces the extraordinary life of the man who became one of the most charismatic, controversial, and polarizing world leaders of the 21st century. It explores his working-class roots, the economic crises that fueled his Bolivarian Revolution, the 2002 coup attempt that nearly toppled him, and his efforts to unite Latin America against the United States. Through rare archival footage and interviews with allies and countrymen, we examine Chávez's profound connection to the poor, his socialist reforms, and the enduring legacy of his "Socialism of the 21st Century" after his untimely death in 2013.
