A product of an extraordinarily ambitious collaboration between the Soviet and Cuban film industries, Soy Cuba depicts Cuba on the eve of a revolution, as oppressive economic exploitation and inequality give way to the uprising of the working class. Havana, 1958. Cuba is a vast playground for wealthy Americans and unscrupulous landowners. It is a realm of corruption, money, and lust. Peasants and students supporting Fidel Castro unite to organise the struggle.
