We begin on October 9 1967. La Higuera. Bolivia. A thirty-nine-year old Che Guevara is stood up against a sparse whitewashed wall. We hear someone shouting and a gun clicking. Che looks to the side and notices one small rose in a flower bowl. It has water dripping off it. He smiles and shuts his eyes. Two years previous. March 13 1965. A stormy rainy sky. Che and his entourage are on a plane returning home to Cuba from a conference in Prague, when the assistant pilot appears from the cockpit to inform the plane has engine trouble and they're going to have to land at Ireland's, Shannon airport. So, begins a remarkable evening. When one night in Limerick, Che Guevara entered Hanratty's bar, and what happened next would become ingrained in the rich tapestry of Irish folklore.
