Synopsis

Two young men set out on an 8000 km journey of self-discovery through the extraordinarily beautiful landscapes (and beautiful women!) of South America.

Director Salles (Central Station), adapting the journals of Ernesto 'Che' Guevara (Gael Garcia Bernal, Amores Perros, Bad Education) traces the origins of a revolutionary heart, capturing the restlessness of youth and the awakening sense of social injustice that created one of the most iconic and influential political leaders of the 20th Century.
