Kino und Kampf 6

Radio, advertising, Caracas. Their paths cross, yet the people never meet. An experimental collage of social realities in Venezuela in the late 1960s.

Scenes of a public soup kitchen; thin broth is spooned up apathetically. The Argentine national anthem is playing. “Hear the sound of broken chains” – cynicism or revolutionary call?

A crime narrated in flashbacks: US development aid workers secretly sterilise indigenous women. A declaration of war against “Yankee imperialism” and Bolivia’s class society.
