Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Part 1: 'The Insurrection of the Bourgeoisie'; Part 2: 'The Coup d'Etat'; Part 3: 'The Power of the People'. Not only the best films about Allende and the coup d'etat, but among the best documentary films ever made, changing our concepts of political documentary within a framework accessible to the widest audience. The films (which form a unity) are committed, analytical and chronological, allowing the participants in history to explain it. The result is of an extraordinary passion.
