Embassy Protectors (film)
2020

Embassy Protectors follows activists who came to Venezuela's embassy in Washington D.C. in May 2019 to protect the building from illegal seizure by the U.S. government and right-wing forces.

The Embassy Protection Collective held the building for 37 days at the permission of the elected government of Nicholas Maduro. Four non-violent activists were arrested. The government failed to convict them in the first trial, which was declared a mistrial. They still face federal prosecution.
