Días de poder


Días de poder is a 2011 film directed by Venezuelan director Román Chalbaud.

Plot

The film follows revolutionary leader Fernando Quintero who, after the fall of the dictatorship of Marcos Pérez Jiménez, rises to power. His son Efraín, inherits his old convictions and becomes an active opponent of the government and his own father.

Reception

Venezuelan film critic Sergio Monsalve said that the movie, along with Chalbaud's late work El Caracazo, Zamora: Tierra y hombres libres and La planta insolente tarnished Chalbaud's career and accomplishments as a filmmaker, saying that they were produced to please the Bolivarian Revolution and the ruling party.
