Orange Revolution

This compelling and absorbing documentary gives insight to the 2004 presidential elections in Ukraine. The drama behind the scenes gives this film enough material that other documentaries dream of. The most dramatic evidence we come to witness is the transformation of Victor Yushchenko from an handsome to a severely scarred face man as he's poisoned with Ricin. Revolutions still happen and this film proves it. You can't stop to admire the passion and determination of the Ukrainian people and wish something like that should have happened in the US in the 2000 elections.
