I found the link on another thread here on PP.

It's a history of US involvement in Central and South America 1950-P. With incredible interviews with torture survivors and ex-CIA and some US politicians (Has an insane bit with E. Howard Hunt talking about Guatemala).

It goes deeply in the 2002 coup in Caracas, a story which I didn't know all the details,  and how insane the levels of propaganda on TV News have been used in Coups and how similar the US is with Venezuelan TV with newsclips, they still constantly call Hugo the Devil, Nazi-Facist, etc on most channels there and he does not censor them.

Yet it is also uplifting when he shows what can be done do defeat tyranny with amazing examples of the people of Venezuela and Bolivia.
