When the Compass Pointed South
Synopsis
The history of South America teaches us that the Venezuelan people and those of the rest of the continent have remained in the fight against the different attempts at capitalist domination, initially by the European invader and later by the express attempts by the American empire. In this context, When the Compass Marked the South shows, through the analysis of different elements, the emergence and consolidation of Venezuelan popular movements, from the conquest to the Bolivarian revolution, in pursuit of achieving a free and sovereign country.

The world's greatest pin-up model and cult icon, Bettie Page, recounts the true story of how her free expression overcame government witch-hunts to help launch America's sexual revolution. When she saw the film The Notorious Bettie Page, produced by HBO in 2006, the main person concerned reacted unequivocally: “Lies! Lies!” In a long interview recorded shortly before her death, the woman who entered the collective unconscious as the ultimate pin-up gave her version of events to director Mark Mori. In a gravelly voice, Bettie Page tells her own story and lifts the veil on areas often hidden by images that have made so many men and women fantasize since the 1950s: her abused childhood, an eclipse that lasted forty years, her mental illness. Through testimonies and unpublished archives, this documentary brings back to life a body and a face endlessly declined before our eyes, just as Bettie wanted: “I would like people to remember me as I was in the photos.”
