- This documentary probes the human realities and the political complexities of life in Nicaragua following the 1979 insurrection that overthrew the Somoza dictatorship. Providing a personalized perspective on the country's past and present are the Chavarrias, a family of six. Their comments are accompanied by archival footage documenting the presence of U.S. Marines in Nicaragua from 1912 to 1933, the rise of rebel leader Augusto Sandino and scenes from the bloody civil war including the murder of ABC-TV newsman Bill Stewart by Somoza's National Guard. The film also explores issues such as the national literacy campaign, the changing relations between the sexes, the social activist role of the church, the agrarian reform movement, the revolution's impact on private business and the training of Nicaraguan exiles at a Florida military camp in preparation for Contra attacks in Nicaragua.
