La planta insolente (lit. 'The insolent plant') is a 2017 film directed by Venezuelan director Román Chalbaud. The film depicts the tenure of Venezuelan President Cipriano Castro.
Plot
The film depicts the tenure of Venezuelan President Cipriano Castro, and the title is based on his quote: "The insolent plant of the foreigner has desecrated the sacred soil of the fatherland", his response to the Venezuelan crisis of 1902–1903, when European nations blockaded Venezuelan shores after Castro refused to pay foreign debts and damages.

Reception
Venezuelan film critic Sergio Monsalve said that the movie, along with Chalbaud's late work El Caracazo, Días de poder and Zamora: Tierra y hombres libres, tarnished Chalbaud's career and accomplishments as a filmmaker, saying that they were produced to please the Bolivarian Revolution and the ruling party, and panned the film.
