Editorial comment: At this 10th anniversary of the failed coup in Venezuela, it's the moment to repost this fabulous documentary which showed the world that democracy is not dead. It may be strangled temporarily – in various places by various callous opportunists and psychopaths, but it will never really be beaten.

This is an unforgettable masterpiece by the two independent Irish filmmakers, Kim Bartley and Donnacha O'Briain: THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT BE TELEVISED. These two broadcast journalists were in Caracas, inside the Presidential palace Miraflores, making a documentary about Chavez and his government at the time the coup hit the country. The coup that set the Venezuelan people in agony but finally led to the most resounding victory for the people and for democracy.  - SON
