Indigenous film, art and activism: counter-cartographies of the Amazon
This one-day symposium explores the relationship between film, art, and activism in the Amazon. Along with in-person discussions by international speakers, the programme includes a number of contemporary Amazonian films made by Indigenous creators who are using film to amplify their voices and contest historical marginalisation.
Suite Habana, directed by Fernando Pérez, 2003
VIVA CUBA! SUITE HABANA (FERNANDO PÉREZ, 2003)
Thu 24 October 2019
West Road Concert Hall
Suite Habana (Fernando Pérez, 2003) is one of the most significant films in the post special era in Cuba. Between documentary and fiction, through the everyday life of fourteen characters, the film portrays a city (and a country) between hope and despair, still fighting for its dreams. An inspiring audio-visual piece to reflect on Cuba past, present and future in the light of the 60th Anniversary of the Cuban Revolution. Film screening is followed by a Q&A with Sandra de Valle.
