One documentary garnering a lot of attention is “A La Calle,” directed by Venezuelan-American Nelson G. Navarrete and Colombian-American Maxx Caicedo. Emotional and timely, the film is about the current political and economic tailspin that Venezuela has experienced since Hugo Chávez took power in 1999, followed by Nicolás Maduro in 2013. As described by WLRN, “‘A La Calle’ examines in compelling detail Venezuelans’ struggle against their dictatorial socialist regime and brutal economic collapse. It opens with a harrowing scene of Venezuelan security forces firing on unarmed protesters in Caracas – but it closes with more optimistic images of opposition leader Juan Guaidó confronting the regime.” By Rachel Levy.
