Revolutionary Filmmaking?

After reading Solanas and Gettino's 1976 essay, "Towards a Third Cinema" on "guerilla" filmmaking, I've been inspired to incorporate their ideologies into my own career as a filmmaker. I've always been passionate about politics and social justice. I've also always loved storytelling and performative arts. So...add the two together and wala! A revolutionary filmmaker is born.
But how practical or realistic is that anyway?

Definition of Revolution and Revolutionary according to good old Wikipedia:

A revolution (from the Latin revolutio, "a turnaround") is a significant change that usually takes place in a short period of time. Aristotle described two types of political revolution:

1. Complete change from one constitution to another.
2. Modification of an existing constitution.^[1]

When used as an adjective, revolutionary refers to something that has a major, sudden impact on society or on some aspect of human endeavor. Political revolutionaries may be classified in two ways:

1. According to the goals of the revolution they propose. Usually, these goals are part of a certain ideology. In theory, each ideology could generate its own brand of revolutionaries. In practice, most political revolutionaries have been either liberals, nationalists, socialists, communists, fascists or anarchists.
2. According to the methods they propose to use. This divides revolutionaries in two broad groups: Those who advocate a violent revolution, and those who are pacifists. Perhaps the best known examples of these two types of revolutionaries are Che Guevara and Mahatma Gandhi, respectively.

What does it take for a film to have a major impact on society that will produce real change in policies, etc.?
Besides content that will affect people emotionally, mentally, physically (???)
....distribution is the key!
Distribution = money.
Or does it? Maybe we have to start thinking outside the box.....
