A documentary dedicated to this important event that took place between April and November 1914 and changed the life of the Veracruz port forever. Here we reveal the historical background of the occupation, in the context of the government of Victoriano Huerta in Mexico and Woodrow Wilsons' in the United States, the complexity of diplomatic relations between the two countries and the position that the American colony had manifested through the press about the revolutionary governments. In addition to the timely account of the battle which took place on April 21st, 1914, the program highlights the way in which the people of Veracruz joined to fight against the Americans during seven months, inheriting a long list of injuries, deaths and heroes.—Clío TV
