About the film
Che Rise & Fall is a documentary film by Eduardo Montes-Bradley. The film was entirely shot in Cuba at the time Che Guevara's remains were airlifted from Bolivia to Santa Clara, his final resting place. The documentary features the testimonies of Guevara’s comrades-in-arms in Sierra Maestra, Congo and Bolivia, also by Alberto Granado with whom Guevara rode a motorcycle from Argentina on a trip that will end 16 years later in the jungles of Bolivia, an experience that was brought to the big screen on The Motorcycle Diaries.
Che Rise & Fall begins with an account of Guevara's death in Bolivia in 1967 and fittingly ends with footage of the return of his remains for interment in Santa Clara's Revolution Square some 30 years later.
