Hasta Siempre

Hasta Siempre, Cuba
57 minutes, 2006
Ref: 516



Hasta Siempre takes the viewer on a journey through the lives of ordinary Cubans, examining the results of the Cuban revolution from the perspective of the people, and asks the question: Can the revolution survive the death of Fidel Castro? Cuba embraced tourism in the early 1990s as a means of surviving the collapse of the Soviet Union. As a result, the island has begun to witness many changes, which now threaten the integrity of the revolution: racial discrimination, prostitution, consumerism, and the re-emergence of class divisions.
