DESCRIPTION:Venezuela Rising\nAn exciting new film about participatory 
 democracy\n\nPresented by producer and filmmaker Catherine Murphy in 
 person\nWho is this man Hugo Chávez and what is this Bolivarian revolution 
 about which so much is heard?  Venezuela Rising follows grandmother and 
 community organizer Gladys Bolivar and her compatriots five days before it 
 is to be decided by popular referendum whether Venezuelan President Hugo 
 Chávez will continue in office or step down.  The entire nation has been 
 mobilized – will it be SÍ, yes he will be recalled, or NO, he will 
 remain in office? Most in Venezuela feel that no less than the entire 
 future of their country is at stake. \n\nThe film addresses issues of 
 democracy and politics – what constitutes a free and fair election, and 
 is that enough to ensure citizen participation?  Are elections the ultimate 
 measure of a thriving democracy?  Venezuela Rising gets behind the 
 headlines and into the neighborhoods of Caracas to find out how 
 Venezuela’s participatory democracy works on the ground.\n\n$5 - $10 
 suggested donation.\n
