Bye Bye Havana (Enhanced DVD)
Product Description:
After five decades of political isolation and economic sanctions, the tiny island of Cuba bears the brunt of the left over Cold War battle between the United States and the Soviet Union. Located a scant 90-miles from the Florida Keys, Cuba is a complex land that leaves people wondering whether Havana is the result of a failed political experiment, or rather the last, battered bastioned standing in the way of unfettered capitalism. This documentary eschews the typical top-down model of political discourse, and attempts to answer that question from the perspective of Havana’s vibrant street life that draws more than a million tourists a year to the storied white sands of her beached. Set to the powerful music of X Alfonso, Latin Grammy nominee, this video explores the spot where Fidel Castro’s idealism meets the realities of consumerism in a city beset by infrastructure decay. Throughout the film, the indomitable spirit if the Cuban people is on full display for the viewer.
