For the first time, a documentary brings together the rebel presidents of Latin America 10 years after the Mar del Plata Summit that pulverized the FTAA. It was Saturday, November 5, 2005 in the Versailles Room of the Hermitage Hotel in Mar del Plata. The four presidents of the Mercosur countries plus the president of Venezuela were about to achieve what they were looking for: that the North American proposal to form a free trade area throughout the continent, the FTAA, be approved by consensus or not. day Néstor Kirchner, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, Tabaré Vázquez, Nicanor Duarte Frutos and Hugo Chávez got what they wanted.The Fourth Summit of the Americas failed to reach a consensus to form an FTAA and Washington was defeated in one of its most ambitious projects to align the region behind its interests since the 19th century.
