The film recounts that in 1952, Guevara, who was only 23 years old, wanted to personally understand the land of neighboring countries and even the South American continent that he had only read about in books, and the road journey with his friends in the South American continent. The film is not so much a show of the revolutionary upbringing as it is a travel diary of two young people. Plot: ①In the first half of the journey, they frequently borrowed the advantages of white Argentines and the superior rank of doctors to seek convenience, but in the second half of the film, they met a displaced Communist couple, when they asked, "Why did you go on the road? ?", Guevara began to really think about the meaning of travel. The latter two became more and more accustomed to introducing themselves by their real names, especially refusing to wear gloves that separate doctors from lepers. At the birthday party, Ernesto insisted on swimming across the Amazon River, which isolates doctors and lepers, in order to celebrate the birthday with everyone, not excluding anyone. ② American capitalists opened mines in Chile to extract local resources and labor. Guevara seemed to be very sensitive to this disguised aggression, and showed a resolute spirit of resistance in his bones. The most prominent performance in the film is his anger, he picks up the stones and smashes them at the vehicle that transports the workers to the mine. ③ Impressive picture: In the early morning, Guevara said goodbye to the leper. The people's heavy gaze on hope, the cold and hazy tones in the morning, and the soothing soundtrack are very emotionally appealing; and the diffuse fog also renders the confused atmosphere of the people. The whole film has a poetic construction full of realism/life: Latin American natural humanities, diary narration, tambourine, dance and other sound and pictures... It is worth noting that at the end of the film, Guevara is on the journey The faces of people from different backgrounds encountered are presented again in black and white images, but the slight movement on the screen reminds us that these are not photos, but a pair of faces silently staring at the camera, a real sense of history and humanitarianism Care overflows the screen. "I am no longer the same me." Guevara said. Finally, in this sense, "Youth is like a mild revolution that everyone goes through."
