About this product

Product Information

This Russian-made study of Cuba, partially written by renowned poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko, captures the island just before it made the transition to a post-revolutionary society. Moving from city to country and back again, I AM CUBA examines the various problems caused by political oppression as well as by great discrepancies in wealth and power.Beginning in Havana in the pre-Castro era, we see how foreigners contributed to the city's prostitution and poverty; this sequence features dreamy, hallucinogenic camera work that creates a feeling of unease and dislocation. Then, in glorious images of palm tress and fertile land, the film looks at the sugar cane fields in the countryside, and the difficulties faced by peasants working the land. Finally, back in the city again, leftist students battle the police and a corrupt government--and pay a high price for their rebellion.

film buff’s movie
Scorsese and Coppola rescued this Russian propaganda film for sake of future film makers. If you are a movie buff, this is one to see. Roger Ebert said opening camera traveling shot “one of most astonishing I have ever seen.”. This was a good CD of a terrific B&W movie from 1964.

APROPOS FOR DEDICATED FILM BUFF
I am an entertainment oriented viewer. Soy Cubano is interesting in an historical context, however, it held little entertainment value for me. Sorry!
