Havana, Jun 15 (Prensa Latina) The documentary film "Che Guevara, donde nunca jamás se lo imaginan" (Che Guevara, where you'd never imagine him) by Cuban movie director Manuel Perez, a winner of the 2013 National Film Award, will be screened at Charles Chaplin movie theater in Havana on Thursday.

The screening of the 2004 film is part of a tribute on the 95th birthday of the Argentine-Cuban guerrilla fighter, organized by the Cuban Institute of Cinematographic Art and Industry (ICAIC).

The film, with a script of the director himself, music by Edesio Alejandro and Ernesto Cisneros, and produced by ICAIC, Gran Vía Musical, and Impulso Records, tell the story, through archival images, of the intense life of the heroic guerrilla fighter, as Ernesto Guevara de la Serna is also known.
