Synopsis:
Following the victory of the Cuban Revolution in 1959, three guerrillas swore allegiance to Che Guevara and joined his fight to export the revolution. In 1967, after their final battle in Bolivia and the execution of their leader, these men—who had operated in the shadows—managed an incredible 2,400-kilometer escape over the course of five months. Pursued by more than four thousand Bolivian army soldiers, they ultimately succeeded in reaching Chile. Through their previously unheard accounts, *Che’s Survivors* (Les Survivants du Che) immerses us in the heart of this manhunt, where personal destinies intersect with the stakes of the Cold War.
