After the overthrow of Chilean President Salvador Allende in 1973, several professors, graduate students, and filmmakers, with help from the Los Angeles Group for Latin American Solidarity, joined to create a film "pamphlet" documenting the social and cultural accomplishments of Allende's Unidad Popular administration and exposing the machinations of the U.S. government and the Chilean upper class that provoked the coup. Using footage generously lent by the producer that been made in Chile for another film, as well as Chilean archival footage and segments produced locally, Chile: With Poems and Guns, first shown in January 1974 in Los Angeles, became widely distributed nationally and internationally. Some of the participants in making the film remained together to continue making films as a collective known as Lucha. Después del golpe de estado en contra del presidente chileno Salvador Allende en 1973, varios profesores, estudiantes de posgrado y cineastas se unieron con el Los Angeles Group for Latin American Solidarity para crear un "panfleto" cinematográfico que documentase los logros del gobierno de Unidad Popular de Allende y las maquinaciones del gobierno estadounidense y la clase alta chilena para provocar el golpe. Haciendo uso de material de archivos chilenos, segmentos producidos localmente y película rodada en Chile para otro filme y generosamente suministrada por el productor, Chile: With Poems and Guns ("Chile: con poemas y armas") se estrenó en enero de 1974 en Los Angeles y se distribuyó ampliamente a nivel nacional e internacional. Algunos de los participantes en el rodaje se mantuvieron juntos y continuaron produciendo películas bajo el nombre de Lucha
