Synopsis
The film takes a look at Hugo Chavez, the leader of the Socialistrevolution in Venezuela and whose main pillar of support is formed
by the state oil company PDVSA. Lucinda Broadbent heads
for the South American nation to find out more. Who is Hugo
Chavez? Is he really something of a soap opera hero, a champion
for his socially-disadvantaged compatriots? Or is he simply
a megalomaniac villain who uses his clout in the oil industry to
buy votes and who will stop at nothing in order to retain his
political power? Stay tuned to find out!
