Cuba, el valor de una utopía

Overview

Eyewitnesses, including Castro himself, look back on the period of resistance and the toppling of Batista's dictatorship. By zooming in on the individual within the collective, the detailed story of the revolution unfolds. In the oral tradition, various Cubans report on oppression, violence, arrests, kidnappings, shootouts, escapes, the guerrilla fight from the mountains and the subsequent triumphant entry into Havana. Their stories are interspersed with archive footage and pictures showing the beauty of contemporary Cuba. In this film, the revolutionary generation muses on the situation on the island 47 years after the heroic revolution.
