I live in toronto and cannot find this film (vhs or dvd) anywhere. Is it even ON vhs or dvd? How did everyone else see it?

I dont get HBO, and even if i did, i wouldnt because i read somewhere that the owner refused to broadcast it because of tense us/cuban relations...

where can i get this film? I've been anticipating it for about a month now.

I can't find it either. Maybe it's because Oliver Stone did another interview with Castro and hence wants to put them both together.

I am reviving this thread because last night I found Commandante on youtube. I have wanted it see since it came out but it never was shown in theaters where I live.

Its broken down into 12 parts. The first link is here, you can follow the rest of the links.

My favorite part was where Fidel was giving his personal views on Che's world revolution. I think he has a certain insight no one else could have witnessed. I'm glad I finally got to see it.
My second favorite part is where he takes Stone to one of the universities and they interview one of the American medical students who is receiving her education free just like a Cuban does and how she plans to return to New York to practice medicine. That spoke book loads to me how fucked up the U$ educational system is.
