Thunder in Guyana is a 2003 documentary film directed by Suzanne Wasserman. It chronicles the relationship between the Chicago-born Janet Rosenberg and Cheddi Jagan, a native of Guyana on South America's northern coast, who fell in love, married and set off for the British colony to start a popular socialist revolution, that led them first to jail and later to the Presidency of the nation. Thunder in Guyana was featured in numerous film festivals and more widely in February 2005 on Independent Lens, a series on PBS. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
