When Che Guevara packed his bags and jumped on the motorcycle, he was 23, and what was my 23-year-old doing? The brain shows chaos, did I really ever have a 23-year-old? When I asked this question, I suddenly had a jolt, maybe in another ten years, I will forget the current 33 years old again.
Che Guevara's "Che" was added by him after the self-guided motorcycle tour, and the head of this "CHE" was painted on T-shirts by countless enthusiastic young people on the 30th anniversary of his murder in 1997. On, "Cut! Cut! Cut!", resounded through the sky.
He was born in Buenos Aires, South America, into a happy middle-class family. In 1952, at the age of 23, a medical student, he suffered from occasional asthma, but under the protection of his parents, it was not a big problem. Instigated by their friend Alberto, they plan to use a Norton 500 motorcycle to roam South America, starting from Argentina, passing through Chile, Peru, Colombia and finally reaching Venezuela, planning to spend four months. At the moment of departure, in his opinion, everything was so beautiful, and he was a little fearless.
This crazy journey has changed Che, and Che's change has affected the whole world. And this film is about this journey, the picturesque scenery and the formation of hungry peasants, poor miners, prostitutes on river boats, indifferent middle classes, stigmatized lepers and extravagant aristocrats sharp contrast.
Just after this profound journey of discovery, Che joined the Cuban revolution and started a guerrilla war with a lot of personality. After the victory of the revolution, he became the second leader. Out of his admiration for Mao, Che visited China twice. Later, out of ideological doubts, he continued to enter the South American jungle to engage in guerrilla warfare. At the age of 39, with the intervention of the CIA, he was captured in Bolivia and killed in the same year.
The most shocking scene appeared on the night of Che's 23rd birthday. He decided to cross the river where the lepers were isolated and finally succeeded. The moment he was helped ashore by the patient, he suddenly remembered the book "John Christopher". A fragment: Saint Christophe walked all night against the current, carrying a heavy child on his left shoulder. At dawn, Christopher, who was about to fall, finally reached the other side. He said to the child, "How heavy are you, child, who are you?" The child said, "I am the day to come." Yes, from now on, Che is the heavy child, he is the people of South America Even the future days of the people of the world.
