 Where: The New Theatre, Connolly Books, Essex St, Temple Bar, Dublin 2 The Venezuela Ireland Network in conjunction with the Progressive Film Club and the Latin America Solidarity Centre have organised two showings of a new film about Venezuela. At both venues, the film makers, Mike Wayne & Deirdre O’Neill will be introducing and talking about their film. “Listen to Venezuela” (125 minutes). The film takes the viewer into a contemporary revolution and extraordinary experiment in radical democracy and social justice. Listen To Venezuela (125 minutes) takes the viewer into a contemporary revolution and extraordinary experiment in radical democracy and social justice. In Venezuela, ordinary people have rejected the savage neo-liberal capitalism that has been imposed the world over. In the west, democracy has been drained of any substantive connection with popular power and accountability over the powerful. In Venezuela, the once marginalised majority have become political actors in a story they have reclaimed from the Venezuelan oligarchy, western business interests and political domination from Washington. Listen To Venezuela builds a multi-leveled, visually diverse account of the struggle for social change, a struggle to build a different kind of society where human needs, not profit, are prioritised; a struggle whose outcome has implications for everyone.
