    S12:E33

    One of the most prominent revolutionaries of the 20th Century, he was a pivotal figure in the creation of Castro's Cuba. His death at the hands of Bolivian security forces in 1967 made him a martyr. Che Guevara came from a middle-class Argentine family. As a young man, he traveled across South America where he was exposed to poverty, injustice and oppression that determined the course of his life. Biography uses rare home movie footage, news coverage of the events in which he was involved and the testimony of experts to go beyond the myth and expose the man who, since his death, has become an icon. See how his time in Guatemala cemented his political views and trace his role in Castro's revolution and government. Explore his writings, including the hugely influential manual for guerilla warfare, and follow his secret missions into Africa and Bolivia, where he was ultimately executed at the age of 39. From die-hard revolutionary to international martyr, this is the story of Che Guevara.
