A lyrical allegory for the loss of Cuba, of homeland, of family, of love, of hope and self-determination. For those of us who know Cuba, it captures the exquisite pain we feel and share amongst us. For those who have not tasted the bitter fruit of knowledge of the betrayal that is Castrismo, may this film give you a sense of this truth. Art conveying transcending reality.
Lush imagery. Phenomenal score. Very well acted. Runs a little long, but maybe that is meant as a reflection on the barbudos tendency to run on (and to stay in power much, but much too long).
