the 60-minute documentary informs how Argentina was systematically ruined not only by US imperialism and international banks such as IMF and Weltbank but also with the help of the corrupt political class in the country. The solid and unanimous resistance of the population since 19th and 20th December 2001 has made the situation slowly but inexorably totter: residents organise themselves in assemblies, the unemployed block the streets, companies are occupied and run by their workers. The military officers and politicians who went unpunished (approximately 30 000 people disappeared during the military dictatorship) are attacked on the streets and sentenced in the public. And the poor people, who don’t have a house, asphalt roads or money for food, get a chance to speak. - 60 min / also available in spanish
