Evo Pueblo Trailers

This is the history of a young farmer of the Bolivian plateau that becomes the first indigenous president of Bolivia. His childhood consists of shepherding ewes in the small school located in Orinoca where he befriends Reneco and Jamie, as well as his first love Wilma. All of them partake in different stages of each others lives. At the young age of 17 he is transferred to Oruro mining city in the heat of the Bolivian plateau. In order to survive he will have to work as a brick maker, baker, and trompetista in the Imperial band. The poverty and continuous droughts in the Moral field force the family Ayma to migrate towards the cochabambino tropic. In the tropical Chapare, Evo will become the biggest coca grower, soon to be delegated and win in the elections for president in 2005 with 54% votes. Evo Pueblo depicts the reality of our country, accounting for the common man that inhabits Bolivia through his fights, joys, poverty, exclusion and marginamiento.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

This movie shows the human side of a great leader, Evo Morales, the struggles he had to deal with, the abusive power from foreign nations that used to control his country. It shows Evo as a human being, starting his political career. Can't wait for the second part about his life as a President! The other characters also play an important role in the movie, although there are some facts (important I would say) that are missing in this movie, the goal I think for this movie was to show Evo Morales as a human being with fears, hopes and close ties to his friends. The story of a self-made leader in Bolivia... simply inspiring! Great movie, well worth watching!
