Chevolution

In 1960, Cuban photographer Alberto 'Korda' Diaz captured a photo of Che Guevara during a mass funeral. History conspired to enable this dynamic portrait to explode on the world scene where it became an international symbol of protest and dissent. It is considered to be the most reproduced image in the history of photograpy. Chevolution is a film about a photograph. It explores how the Che image traveled from Korda's studio in Havana to the streets of Europe and beyond and how this portrait with its enigmatic gaze became a symbol for countless visions for change.
