The Revolution Will Not Be Televised opens in 2001[nb 3][8] with footage of Chávez as he tours the country. Met with "popular enthusiasm", he speaks at rallies, decrying neoliberalism and the international community's attacks on his character.[9] The film outlines Chávez's rise to power, before covering his day-to-day routine and appearances on his television show, Aló Presidente, which includes a phone-in for citizens to speak with the president.[9] Chávez outlines his aspiration to be seen as a modern-day Bolívar.[8] Clips from Venezuelan and United States news reports demonstrate a "relentless campaign" against the president.[10]
