This is the absorbing story of Che Guevara and how Alberto "Korda" Diaz's iconic photograph has come to represent so much to different generations. It is the story of a photographer and the most reproduced image of a person in the 20th century, and how mythology through art becomes larger than life. Che’s image now sells on posters, T-shirts and beer bottles, but what does he represent to modern consumers? Interviewees include Antonio Banderas, Gerry Adams and Gael García Bernal.
In 1960, Cuban photographer Alberto Korda Díaz
snapped a photo of Ernesto Che Guevara. Eight years later, the image exploded throughout Europe and Latin America, where it became a symbol of protest and dissent. Today, the photograph remains one of the most dominant icons of the twentieth century. CHEVOLUTION is a film about a single photograph, and how this portrait, with its enigmatic gaze, became a symbol of countless visions for change.http://www.amazon.com/Chevolution-Antonio-Banderas/dp/B002TLRG78
