The films of Cuban director Santiago Alvarez exist as a kind of fractured mirror on the last 40 years of American history - a subversive alternate history. A film career that began only with the triumph of the Cuban Revolution in 1959 and continued until his death in 1998. This is a compilation of his films: Now, Cerro Pelado, Hanoi Martes 13, Hasta la Victoria Siempre, L.B.J., 79 Primaveras, El Sueno del Pongo and El Tigre Saltó y Mató... Morirá... Morirá.

Huey P. Newton was a co-founder of the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, an organization FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover once called “the greatest internal threat to the security of the United States”. He spent four years in prison for the voluntary manslaughter of an Oakland police officer before his conviction was overturned in 1971. This powerful documentary features an exclusive interview with Newton during his incarceration, wherein Newton discusses his goals as a revolutionary, including self-determination for African-Americans, full employment, decent housing for the poor and disenfranchised, an end to police brutality and an end to the Vietnam War.

MOVE first emerged in Philadelphia (USA) in the early seventies. This documentary traces the most important events in the history of the organisation during the seventies and eighties, when MOVE was at the centre of brutal repression that ended with the majority of its members killed or in jail. Eight of them remain in prison to this day. “The work of MOVE is the revolution. MOVE works to stop industry from poisoning the air, the water, the soil, and put an end to the enslavement of life - people, animals, any form of life... The revolution begins with the individual. It begins when a person commits to doing the right thing. You cannot turn somebody into a revolutionary by making them shout slogans or wield arms. The revolution cannot be imposed on others, it must awaken within each person. Somebody may talk about the revolution, but if they still worship money or take drugs or abuse their partner, they are obviously not committed to doing the right thing. Revolution is not a philosophy, it is an action".

“Hello, I'm going to read a declaration of war. Within the next 14 days we will attack a symbol of American justice”. - Former Underground Member Bernardine Dohrn. Thirty years ago, with these words, a group of young American radicals announced their intention to overthrow the U.S. government. Fueled by outrage over the Vietnam War and racism in America, they went underground during the 1970s, bombing targets across the country that they felt symbolized “the real violence” that the U.S. government and capitalist power were wreaking throughout the world. From pitched battles with police on Chicago's city streets, to bombing the U.S. Capitol building, to breaking acid-guru Timothy Leary out of prison, this carefully organized clandestine network attempted to incite a national revolution, while successfully evading one of the largest FBI manhunts in history.
