El Salvador: Another Vietnam is a 1981 American documentary film directed by Glenn Silber. This political documentary illustrates the turbulent history of El Salvador from the 1920s-1970s, and the role of the U.S. government in that history. As the title suggests, the presence of U.S. military advisors in a military dictatorship fighting guerrilla factions that are labeled communist is highly reminiscent of the beginnings of the U.S. escalation of the war in Vietnam. It was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature.

En 1973, alors que Salvador Allende initie un programme de transformations sociales et politiques visant à enrayer la pauvreté, la droite organise une série de grèves. Quand Allende obtient la majorité des suffrages en mars, la bourgeoisie comprend qu’elle ne peut plus avoir recours à des mécanismes légaux, et c’est le coup d’État.
