Che

The biographic movie, “Che”, about the Marxist revolutionary leader Che Guevara, who fought along with Fidel Castro in the Cuban revolution, will be presented this month in Cuba.

The announcement was made by Ivan Giroud, the director of New Latino-Americano Movies Festival which will take place in Havana.

He also said that the movie will have a special presentation and will not compete for any of the awards at the event.

In July this year, Alfredo Guevara, the president of the Festival, said that the movie won’t be played in Cuba if it contains attacks towards Fidel Castro, the one who lead the country for 49 years and entrusted to his brother, Raul Castro, the function of president of Cuba in February 2008.

This sequel, directed by Steven Soderbergh and with Benicio del Toro as the leading actor, centers on the journey of “Che” to New York, when he made a speech at United Nations headquarters in 1964, being celebrated by the social circles.

Benicio Del Toro won the prize for the best actor, in May 2008, at the Cannes Film Festival, where the “Che” production had the official premiere.
