Nicaragua: A Nation's Right to Suvive.
Documentary Film by John Pilger

In 1979, the Sandinistas won a popular revolution in Nicaragua, putting an end to decades of the corrupt US-backed Somoza dictatorship. They based their reformist ideology on that of the English Co-operative Movement, but was to prove too ‘radical’ for the Reagan administration.In this film, Pilger describes the achievements of the Sandinistas and their "threat of a good example".
