I Am Cuba is classy revival of 1960s film

I Am Cuba

Director: Mikhail Kalatozov

Cast: Jose Gallardo, Sergio Corrieri, Raul Garcia, Luz Maria Collazo

Cert: PG

A classy revival for this l960s film about the Cuban revolution, albeit a film heavy on the propaganda.

Four stories cover various forms of oppression and revolt – farmers chucked off their land by greedy landowners, students versus thuggish police, army bombing of villages – and the real triumph comes from the brilliant camerawork.

Star Rating: 4/5
