Chevolution

In the last decade, with the establishment of the internet, the image has once again travelled the globe in many forms. From protest to commerce, it is constantly transformed and reinvented. It is considered to be the most reproduced image in the history of photography.

Why and how did this photograph become so important? This documentary explores how the Che image travelled from Korda's studio in Havana to the streets of Europe and beyond. We investigate how this portrait with its enigmatic gaze became a symbol for countless visions for change.

Gael Garcia Bernal and Antonio Banderas, actors who have both played Che in feature films, appear in the documentary.
