Despite receiving a fairly decent theatrical release south of the border, award-winning journalist John Pilger’s most recent film, in which he examines the role of various US governments in the manipulation of Latin American politics over the past 50 years, has received only a cursory number of screenings in Scotland. It you miss these two screenings you may have to wait for this excellent documentary’s as yet unspecified release on DVD.
