In 1967 Che Guevara was captured in the Bolivian jungle and shot dead. Ever since, history books have held his former lieutenant Ciro Bustos responsible. Now, for the first time, Bustos tells his side of the story. In a relentless effort to get to the truth behind the myth, Gandini and Saleh track down key figures present at Guevara’s death, including an ex-CIA agent, Bolivian army officers and former comrades. Their search exposes how shoddy and partial research by historians has turned one man into a convenient scapegoat for a world that demands the simple certainties of martyr or traitor. Imaginatively executed, with the pace and drama of a spy thriller, this is an investigative documentary par excellence.
