Streaming video - 2016

Reminiscent of Searching for Sugarman, RED GRINGO follows Dean Reed, a North American singer who became a pop idol during the ʼ50s and ʼ60s in Chile and the Americas. There, the surprising political transformation he undergoes after learning of the brutality and repression of U.S.-supported regimes in South America earns him the nickname “Red Elvis.”. Official Selection at the Seattle International Film Festival.. "... A fascinating look back at one of the United States’ most peculiar 20th century pop phenomena.” – Andrew S. Vargas, Remezcla
