Devils Don’t Dream

(¡Los diablos también sueñan!)

In 1954, the young revolutionary government of Jacobo Arbenz Guzmán of Guatemala was overthrown by the CIA. This spellbinding portrait of a dreamer and an idealist is "a monument of analysis and includes a wealth of fascinating archive footage that pinpoints the time and the lessons of history. Riveting viewing," says Sheila Whitaker of the London Film Festival.
