About This Movie

A La Calle is a firsthand account of the extraordinary efforts of ordinary Venezuelans to reclaim their democracy from the dictatorship of Nicolás Maduro, whose corrupt and brutal policies have plunged the country into economic ruin. Working with a network of clandestine camera crews, the filmmakers spent three years recording interviews with opposition figures including Leopoldo López, whose arrest and imprisonment inspired a national movement and grassroots activist Nixon Leal, as well as a host of everyday citizens. As acting interim President Juan Guaidó works to rally opposition to the Maduro regime, the dictator and his allies tighten their hold over a nation already crippled by hyperinflation, blocking humanitarian aid and repressing dissent with arrests, torture and killings.
