Overview:

This animated film tells the life story of the liberator Simón Bolívar: from his birth in Caracas and his education, to his travels, battles and the struggle against Spanish rule for Latin American independence. In this narrative, historical conflicts are simplified through fictional characters like “Tiránico,” symbolizing Spanish evil and domination, and “Américo,” who represents slavery and the people’s yearning for freedom.
