I Am Cuba, the Siberian Mammoth

I Am Cuba, the Siberian Mammoth 2005 Directed by Vicente Ferraz Soy Cuba, o mamute Siberiano

Contemporary film critics regard the epic film I Am Cuba as a modern masterpiece. The 1964 Cuban/Soviet coproduction marked a watershed moment of cultural collaboration between two nations. Yet the film never found a mass audience, languishing for decades until its reintroduction as a "classic" in the 1990s. Vicente Ferraz explores the strange history of this cinematic tour de force, and the deeper meaning for those who participated in its creation.
