The Last Country
70 min, Spanish, DOC, Brazil/Cuba/Angola, 2018
Synopsis
O Último País (The Last Country), it’s a film catharsis. Living away from Cuba didn’t look dramatic for me, until I began to understand that the country would change and I wouldn’t be there to watch. I knew that we had to open ourselves to the world and renew us, but I was afraid that with this renovation the best system with lots of contradictions and utopias would also fade away. I wanted to film that change, wanted to meet with the Cubans, talk with them, return to belong. From the outside, things are seen in another way from other points of view. But coming back to Cuba, worried with the changes, made me feel more apart and weird, instead of restore the sense of belonging.
