Photographer Andrew Lindy travelled to Cuba and made a film about prostitution in Cuba. You may like or dislike his approach to this “hands on” film project."I certainly tried to explain that I was not looking for prostitutes, although I did explain that many people use prostitution as a means of income subsidy. Cuban people are lovely and honorable. If I have a particular point or criticism, it is that people are struggling to make ends meet. 80% of the economy is black market, and there is a general sadness in people because they lack opportunity. However it is not a restlessness. My sense is that opportunity is so scarce that creative drive is quite rare, which means that restlessness is not likely to occur."

(Fr5) Sur un air de Cuba (2016) Movies

Posted by Morocco at Aug. 31, 2016

Ile des Caraïbes située aux portes du continent américain, Cuba a su préserver au fil des siècles les vestiges de son passé fascinant. Ses forteresses, ses palais et ses églises, ainsi que son industrie sucrière ont été les témoins silencieux d'un long processus d'intégration et de mélanges successifs. Au cours de cette évolution, l'identité ethnique et culturelle cubaine a bien failli disparaître. Aujourd'hui, Cuba cultive sa différence. La République socialiste dirigée pendant près de cinquante ans par Fidel Castro s'est ouverte au tourisme. Son histoire, son peuple et ses traditions en font un pays au charme hors du commun.

In director Richard Lester's Cuba, Sean Connery plays British soldier-of-fortune Robert Dapes, sent to Havana during the last days of the Batista regime. He is supposed to train Batista's soldiers for their upcoming confrontations with Castro's followers. As Dapes becomes increasingly sympathetic towards the rebel cause, he takes a few precious moments to renew his romance with Alexandra Pulido (Brooke Adams), who is now married to Juan Pulido (Chris Sarandon). The basic thrust of the film is that unchecked capitalism is perfectly capable of collapsing under its own weight – and that lofty idealism can be easily forgotten once absolute power is within one's grasp.
