Nicaragua - A Nations Right To Survive
John Pilger's 1983 film about the small nation of Nicaragua and its right to survive investigates the corruption in Central America. In 1979, the Sandinistas won a popular revolution in Nicaragua, putting an end to decades of the corrupt US-backed Somoza dictatorship, but freedom and democracy were concepts to ‘radical’ for the Reagan administration, and the "threat of a good example" had to be crushed.
