De sa maissance jusqu’à sa mort, de ses années de médecine en Amérique Latine jusqu’à son adhésion au mouvement du 26 juiillet, du tribunal révolutionnaire cubain jusqu’aux jungles du Congo et de la Bolivie : ce documentaire extraordinaire retrace la vie d’Ernesto Guevara, plus connu sous le nom de Che Guevara ou Le Che. Le Dr Alberto Granados, compagnon de moto du Che, ainsi que trois survivants de la guardia de Hierro du Che nous livrent leurs souvenirs et leurs témoignages sur celui qui est devenu une icone pour les mouvements révolutionnaires marxistes du monde entier.
Che: Rise and Fall is the most complete work yet produced on the trials and tribulations of Argentine born Ernesto Che Guevara. The documentary is structured in three main acts. The first relates to the early years in Argentina, his friendship with Alberto Granado and the preparations for the long journey through South America on a motorcycle. The adventure served as the argument to another film The Motorcycle Diaries. The second half of the First Act focuses on the Cuban Revolution and the relationship between Guevara and Fidel Castro. The Second Act brings the audience closer to the period in Guevara spent in Africa fighting a Revolutionary War, and last but not least, we are confronted with the final days of Che in Bolivia. Che: Rise and Fall brings out for the first time the testimony of Alberto Granado himself at a crucial time when the remains of Guevara were being brought back to Cuba after thirty years in an unmarked grave somewhere in Bolivia
