Repainting Cuba

Directed by Alex Veitch, Anna Klara Åhrén, Oskar Idin, Sascha Fülscher, Anna Weitz

Repainting Cuba takes a critical look at communist Cuba, where both the facades and the aging regime were given a coating of colorful paint in connection with the 50 year anniversary of the revolution. Two young Cubans under house arrest talk about being imprisoned for dealing with foreign tourists in a society where gossip and backstabbing is endemic, and where the heavy varnish can’t conceal the cracks.
