A Venezuelan documentary highlights post-Chávez progress and challenges, countering global misperceptions.
Venezuelan filmmakers Rodrigo Acuña and Nic Ford premiered their documentary *Venezuela: The Cost of Challenging an Empire*, aiming to counter global misperceptions by highlighting achievements like 4.5 million new apartments, expanded healthcare and education, and a unified national police force under the Bolivarian revolution.
The film contrasts pre-revolution inequality with post-Chávez reforms, acknowledging ongoing challenges including sanctions and corruption, while noting that many poorer Venezuelans see Maduro as doing his best under pressure.
The documentary, shaped by over a year and a half of editing, reflects a broader effort to present a balanced view of Venezuela’s complex transformation.
