Castro vs Guevara

Che Guevara, an duine radaigeach agus Fidel Castro an duine poilitigeach. Documentary looking at the rivalry between Che Guevara and Fidel Castro.

Tha an t-sreath seo, Aghaidh ri Aghaidh a' d猫anamh coimeas eadar dithis air a bheil sinn uile e貌lach, a' sealltainn a' ch貌mhstri a bh' eatorra agus mar a thug seo buaidh air ar beatha l脿itheil. Che Guevara, duine radaigeach, agus Fidel Castro, duine poilitigeach... am b' urrainn dhaibh idir a thighinn c貌mhla gus Ameireaga Sp脿inneach a shaoradh? Robh Che Guevara, an ceatharnach treun, a' dol a dh'ionnsaigh b脿s ann am Bolivia? No an robh Fidel Castro, mean air mhean, a' feuchainn ris a' charaid aige a thr猫igsinn airson an 霉ghdarrais aige fh猫in a dh猫anamh nas maireannaich? Bho thoiseach an c脿irdeas reabhlaideach ann am Meagsaco, tha an co-obrachadh seo air a bhith coltach ri g猫am T脿ileisg, far an tug breugan agus str矛 airson cumhachd buaidh air riaghailtean an geama.

Che Guevara, the radical thinker, and Fidel Castro, the political animal - could they ever share the role of Latin America's liberator? Did Che Guevara, the diehard combatant, set off towards certain death in Bolivia? Or did the manipulative Fidel Castro abandon the friend who he saw as an ever-increasing liability. From the birth of a revolutionary friendship in Mexico, theirs was a collaboration akin to a fascinating game of chess, where lies, manipulation and power struggles completely changed the rules of the game.
