| Guantanamera (DVD) |
 This is the story of the hilarious journey of a body, making his way through bumpy cuban roads, and overly-centralized red tape bureaucraty. It shows that cuban movie enjoys a certain freedom : black market, clandestine restaurant and permanent shortage of everything is openly suggested. In my opinion, the funiest movie ever shot in Cuba. |
