Since 1998, Venezuela has followed a resolutely revolutionary path. Leading the way is President Hugo Chavez, who provokes strong reactions from all sides. Not only does Chavez want to liberate the Venezuelan people, he wants to help the whole world rid itself of North American imperialism. Is he a freedom fighter, or a dangerous madman? In the heat of revolutionary struggles, greatness and madness can be hard to tell apart. When idealism is the only guide, there is a constant risk of losing control. And threats come from every direction, even within.
Revolucion is a journey through the tortuous paths of revolution.
