Aug. 6 - Sean Penn has been given a grand tour of Venezuela by none other than president Hugo Chavez.

Penn has been in Venezuela for several days, touring film studios and poor neighbourhoods.

Cindy Martin reports.

SOUNDBITES:

  • Sean Penn, U.S. Actor, saying (English):
  • Hugo Chavez, Venezuelan President, saying (Spanish): "Sean Penn is from the United States and a man critical of his government and imperialism. He told me, 'I've heard that they attack Venezuela, that they attack Chavez, since they've lied so much to all the people of the United States.' They're becoming aware that there are great lies and they want to discover the truth."
