- Synopsis
-
Here is the dreamy and bittersweet story of a family divided by politics and geography by the Cuban revolution.
It is the family story of Celia del Pino, and her husband, daughter and grandchildren, from the mid-1930s to 1980.
Celia's story mirrors the magical realism of Cuba itself, a country of beauty and poverty, idealism and corruption.
DREAMING IN CUBAN presents a unique vision and a haunting lamentation for a past that might have been.
