Pepe Mujica

The President and the Earth

88 min

Pepe Mujica is "the poorest president in the world." From spring 2010 to 2015 the former guerrilla and flower grower  ruled Uruguay, and now sits as a Senator in Parliament. The filmmaker Heidi Specogna visited the now 81-year-old and his partner. Her film is a moving portrait of a remarkable man. Throughout his whole life, his attitude and perseverance, his cheerfulness and his vision, have been a testament to one thing: that there IS another way.
