The Revolution Will Not Be Televised (download: 565MB)

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez was elected to the presidency in 1998.

So it shouldn't have come as much of a surprise that a coup was engineered by supporters of past president Carlos Andres Perez. The good fortune of the Irish filmmakers who were in the country making a documentary on Chavez meant that the entire process, as recorded in interviews and footage from both sides (something the country's media wasn't adept at) gave a clear picture of how the attempted coup was orchestrated.
