The Motorcycle Diaries (20th Anniversary) 15
Showing as part of Special screenings & events
Showroom is delighted to collaborate with artist and curator Joseph Cutts to present a special 20th anniversary screening of The Motorcycle Diaries.
On a break before his last semester of medical school, Ernesto "Che" Guevara (Gael García Bernal) travels with his friend Alberto Granado (Rodrigo De la Serna) from Brazil to Peru by motorcycle.
The two men soon witness the great disparities in South America, encountering poor peasants and observing the exploitation of labour by wealthy industrialists. When they reach a leper colony in Peru, Ernesto's values have changed so much that he sides with the sufferers, forgetting his own comfort.
