Venezuela has never been on the international stage. Now Venezuela’s new assertiveness has brought it to the centre of international controversy: to some it has been stolen by populist dictator, while for others, it is the centre of a continent-wide democratic revolution. There is much at stake. Venezuela sits atop the largest oil reserves in the world, which are being used to foment a new order. President Hugo Chávez, who survived a US-backed military coup in 2002, has supported a number of controversial social programs that have pushed Venezuela onto the United States government, and media, enemy radar. What makes Venezuela tick? Who is behind the movement and what does it seek? Filmed through the 2006 presidential elections, this is a documentary about the people building a new Venezuela. Watch this amazing documentary exclusivley for 3 days only on Renderyard durring July. To find out more and the screening dates and times visit www.renderyard.com
