The result is a revealing profile of a modern dictator. The film also explores a series of temporary events that defined Fujimori`s government, including the meteoric ascent from university professor to president, his relationship with a spy, Vladimiro Montesinos, and the outcome of the takeover of the Japanese embassy in Lima by terrorists. Misuse of public funds and buying over parliament leaders are news today within the political crisis also experienced in Brazil.
