Young filmmakers, Clorinda Andrade and Kevin A. Lopez, UB alumna & graduate student, traveled to Cuba to explore one of its most apparent paradoxes, its tourism industry. Having traveled through the island for a month, both captured a more personal side of Cuba that many are never exposed to, a view of the country where Cubans are able to speak for themselves. Tourism has become the most important sector of the Cuban economy, and researchers predict that once it opens up to the U.S., one million visitors will arrive to the island. This film which was partly funded by the Miramax Minority Scholarship Fund, explores the current social effects of tourism on Cuban society.
The filmmaker & UB alumna, Clorinda Andrade, will be on hand to moderate a guided dialogue following the film.
We encourage you to use the comments section to discuss any subject related to the film.
