English Summary:

Che is a two-part 2008 biographical film about Argentine Marxist revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara, directed by Steven Soderbergh and starring Benicio del Toro. Rather than follow a standard chronological order, the films offer an oblique series of interspersed moments along the overall timeline. Part One is entitled The Argentine and focuses on the Cuban Revolution from the landing of Fidel Castro, Guevara, and other revolutionaries in Cuba to their successful toppling of Fulgencio Batista's dictatorship two years later. Part Two is titled Guerrilla and focuses on Guevara's attempt to bring revolution to Bolivia and his demise. Both parts are shot in a cinéma vérité style, but each has different approaches to linear narrative, camerawork and the visual look.

Part 1: The Argentine

In Havana in 1964, Che Guevara is interviewed by Lisa Howard who asks him if reform throughout Latin America might not blunt the "message of the Cuban Revolution."

In 1955, at a gathering in Mexico City, Guevara first meets Fidel Castro. He listens to Castro's plans and signs on as a member of the July 26th Movement.

There is a return to 1964 for Guevara's address before the United Nations General Assembly in New York City, where he makes an impassioned speech against American imperialism, and defends the executions his regime has committed, declaring "this is a battle to the death."

Hungarian Summary:

Az Oscar-díjas Steven Soderbergh Che Guevara életét bemutató kétrészes alkotásának első filmje AZ ARGENTIN. 1956. november 26-án Fidel Castro kihajózik Kuba irányába, a fedélzeten 80 lázadóval. Ezek egyike Ernesto „Che” Guevara, az argentin orvos, aki hasonló nézeteket vall Castróval: véget kell vetni Fulgencio Batista korrupt önkényuralmának. Che a forradalom nélkülözhetetlen harcosává válik, aki könyörtelen gerillaháborút folytat a rezsimmel szemben. Odaadó küzdelme rengeteg követőre talál elvtársai és a kubai nép soraiban egyaránt. Az argentin Che felemelkedését követi nyomon: hogy lett orvosból katonai vezető, majd a forradalom hőse.
