DESCRIPTION:A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition Film Series\nTwo films on CUBA & VENEZUELA\n$6 
 donation\n\n“On the Hillside of the Himalayas”\nIn 2005 Pakistan 
 suffered a devastating earthquake. Over 80,000 people were killed, tens of 
 thousands were injured. In the remote Himalayan mountains, there were no 
 doctors to treat the injured. That is when more than 1,200 Cuban doctors 
 and nurses arrived, from the heroic Henry Reeve Internationalist Brigade, 
 to provide free emergency medical care. This documentary is a moving 
 tribute to the humanitarian ideals of the Cubans and their Revolution. 
 2006, 36min.\n\n“Venezuela Rising”\nAs seen through the eyes of 
 grandmother and community organizer Gladys Bolivar, the documentary follows 
 her and her compatriots five days before the 2004 popular referendum vote 
 determining whether Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez will continue in 
 office or step down—a referendum initiated by the opposition in another 
 attempt to overthrow the Chavez government. See how the people organize on 
 the grassroots level to keep the Bolivarian revolution in power—a 
 government that the vast majority feel is truly ‘by and for the 
 people’. Hear firsthand from those involved in the ‘Missions’—the 
 health clinics, literacy programs and food distribution centers set up in 
 the most impoverished neighborhoods of Caracas—who see the referedum 
 victory as a victory for all Venezuelans.  2005, 66 min. , Spanish and 
 English subtitles.\n\n\n
