In 1952, 23-year-old medical student Ernesto Guevara and his best friend Alberto Granado embark on a motorbike journey across Latin America. Encountering inequality and poverty, the experience would define the life of the man who later came to be known as ‘Che’–leader of the Cuban Revolution.
« Handsomely shot by the Brazilian director, and beautifully played by the two leads, The Motorcycle Diaries would amount to little more than a minor, softly politically conscious coming-of-age story, if not for its historical context. » (The A.V. Club)
« You get so caught up in the beauty of the images, and lost in the weathered faces found along the way, you quite forget that you’re traveling with Che Guevara – which is, of course, exactly what the original experience would be. » (Seattle Times
