 Films presents CHE, an epic biopic presented in two sessions from Academy 
 Award winning director Steven Soderbergh (TRAFFIC, ERIN BROKOVICH) and 
 starring Academy Award winner Benicio Del Toro (TRAFFIC, USUAL SUSPECTS). 
 In Spanish, partially subtitled in English. \nOfficial Film Website: 
 http://www.ifcfilms.co... \n\nDirector Steven Soderbergh's two-part epic 
 about the life of Ernesto "Che" Guevara stars Benicio Del Toro (Best Actor, 
 2008 Cannes Film Festival) in a tour de force performance as the legendary 
 revolutionary. Part One shows how Che proved to be an indispensible 
 fighter, along with Fidel Castro, in the overthrow of the corrupt 
 dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista. As he throws himself into the struggle, 
 Che is embraced by his comrades and the Cuban people. Che rises to 
 prominence in the Cuban Revolution, from doctor to commander to 
 revolutionary hero. \n\nPart Two shows Che at the height of his fame and 
 power. Then he disappears, re-emerging incognito in Bolivia, where he 
 organizes a small group of Cuban comrades and Bolivian recruits to start 
 the great Latin American Revolution. The story of the Bolivian campaign is 
 a tale of tenacity, sacrifice, idealism, and of guerrilla warfare that 
 ultimately fails, bringing Che to his death. Through this story, we come to 
 understand how Che remains a symbol of idealism and heroism that lives in 
 the hearts of people around the world. \n\nCANNES FILM FESTIVAL: BEST ACTOR
