In the Name of the People (1985). Four filmmakers secretly entered El Salvador to follow a guerrilla movement going in combat against military forces run by the government during El Salvador's civil war. This socialist insurgent movement is formed by peasants, women and children, poor people who are fighting for better life conditions and against the tyrannic repression of the government.
I have mixed feelings on this one overall, particularly with the way it feels pretty naive about the nature of imperialism, but at the same time, it's pretty hard to argue that this is a really affecting documentary that provides unprecedented insight into the Salvadoran Civil War. It's a hard watch in many ways, particularly with the children being taught guerilla warfare, but also one that feels vital in the way only documentaries often can. 8/10.
