Talking of Power (62 mins.)
From the hills of Caracas to the banks of the Orinoco, the grassroots tell us how they are changing our world.
Plus: Enter the Oil Workers! (34 mins.)
Four oil workers tell how they saved Venezuela's nationalised oil company from a CIA coup, and how they're organizing to “put the oil industry at the service of humanity”.

"Talking of Power is a solid & exciting documentary that offers a glimpse of new ways of re-making the world and women's role at the heart of it."
Rod Stoneman, Huston School of Film, Galway, Ireland
From Talking of Power:
"The people from the 'barrio' built the city twice: during the day we built the houses of the well-off; at night and at weekends, with solidarity, we built our own homes, our 'barrio'."
La Vega Land Committee
"Who suffers most, who works most when health services are privatized? Women, mothers... Social security for housewives is a debt." President Chávez
"Power is about doing and achieving for the benefit of all, of the collective. No one can speak for us, we must all speak for ourselves".
Women's Development Bank
