La primera vez que los venezolanos fuimos a votar fue para escoger una reina de belleza. Hace 80 años, en 1944, los venezolanos vivimos por primera vez la experiencia del voto universal, directo y secreto. El documental 'La Reina del Pueblo' cuenta cómo la elección de la reina de una serie de béisbol se convirtió en el primer paso para la construcción de una sociedad democrática. Un camino que aún no termina y atraviesa una de sus más duras pruebas. El momento es oportuno para reencontrarse con esta historia. ‘La Reina del Pueblo’, disponible online.
