Che Guevara: The Last Companions (2026)

7.4/10 • 98 min • Documentary Animation

Overview

After the triumph of the Cuban Revolution in 1959, three guerrilla fighters followed Che Guevara in his attempt to carry the uprising beyond the island. In 1967, after their final battle in Bolivia and Che’s execution, these shadow warriors embarked on an extraordinary 2,400 km journey across Bolivia, pursued by 4,000 soldiers and navigating remote terrain in a bid to stay alive. Sixty years later, Che’s last surviving comrades recount this untold story of endurance and loyalty, in which individual destinies were shaped by the larger geopolitical currents of the Cold War. Blending rare archive footage, animation and exclusive interviews, the film brings a forgotten chapter of history into the present.
