BBC ALBA - Aghaidh ri Aghaidh, Series 2, Castro vs Guevara

The rivalry story between Che Guevara and Fidel Castro.

Che Guevara, an duine radaigeach agus Fidel Castro an duine poilitigeach. Documentary looking at the rivalry between Che Guevara and Fidel Castro.

Tha an t-sreath seo, Aghaidh ri Aghaidh a' dèanamh coimeas eadar dithis air a bheil sinn uile eòlach, a' sealltainn a' chòmhstri a bh' eatorra agus mar a thug seo buaidh air ar beatha làitheil. Che Guevara, duine radaigeach, agus Fidel Castro, duine poilitigeach... am b' urrainn dhaibh idir a thighinn còmhla gus Ameireaga Spàinneach a shaoradh? Robh Che Guevara, an ceatharnach treun, a' dol a dh'ionnsaigh bàs ann am Bolivia? No an robh Fidel Castro, mean air mhean, a' feuchainn ris a' charaid aige a thrèigsinn airson an ùghdarrais aige fhèin a dhèanamh nas maireannaich? Bho thoiseach an càirdeas reabhlaideach ann am Meagsaco, tha an co-obrachadh seo air a bhith coltach ri gèam Tàileisg, far an tug breugan agus strì airson cumhachd buaidh air riaghailtean an geama.

Che Guevara, the radical thinker, and Fidel Castro, the political animal - could they ever share the role of Latin America's liberator? Did Che Guevara, the diehard combatant, set off towards certain death in Bolivia? Or did the manipulative Fidel Castro abandon the friend who he saw as an ever-increasing liability. From the birth of a revolutionary friendship in Mexico, theirs was a collaboration akin to a fascinating game of chess, where lies, manipulation and power struggles completely changed the rules of the game.
