Film5.6DramYedi günde geçen yedi hikâye. Yedi yönetmenden tek bir kent: Havana! Sırasıyla haftanın günleri ilerlerken, farklı karakterlerin hem gündelik hem de olağandışı hayatları gözler önüne seriliyor. Filmi samimi ve gerçekçi kılan ise şehre turistik bir gözle bakmayıp şehrin ruhunu özümseyerek, farklı nesil ve kültürleri zengin bir yelpazede bir araya getirmesi. Her bir hikâyenin konusu farklı olsa da karakterler ve mekânlar da bazen hikâyeler arasında geçiş yapıyor. Havana'ya has sıcak ve yoğun duyguları yakalayan filmde ilk yönetmenlik denemesiyle oyuncu Benicio del Toro'nun yanı sıra kendi yönettiği bölümde başrolü oynayan Elia Suleiman ve bu kez kameranın önüne geçen yönetmen Emir Kusturica da yer alıyor.
Film6.6DramRomantikCarla, a young postal worker in Havana, spends her days postmarking thousands of letters and dreaming of the day when she can be reunited with her parents, who moved to Miami when she was fifteen. To fulfill her longing for intimacy, she opens random letters and rewrites them into lyrical prose, believing she is helping her fellow Cubans understand one another better. Beautifully filmed in black and white accented by brilliant colours, Nada+ has a stunning visual composition. With its delightful mix of visual humour, theatrical characters, satire and a lighthearted love story, it has a distinctly Cuban flair.

Film4.7DramThe story of Cecilia is a story of the society that dominated 19th-century Cuba, a society divided between whites, blacks, and those who were mixed, the mulattos. (Since the Spanish conquistadors killed off the Indian population in Cuba not long after they took over the island, there are no mestizos, or those of mixed-Indian blood in Cuba as in other Caribbean nations.) At any rate, the drama about the life and loves of Cecilia (Daisy Granados) takes place against the backdrop of graphically violent mistreatment of slaves and the rumors of a slave rebellion after the Cubans hear of slaves turning against their captors in Haiti.

Film5.3FantastikDramAn elderly man with wings is blown off course during a tropical storm in this symbolic fantasy. The Old Man lands near a Caribbean island where a poor family gives him shelter in a chicken coop. Father Gonzaga is the skeptical priest who rushes to damn the creature. Soon the Old Man is the subject of curiosity seekers as Elisinda and Pelayo start charging admission. A traveling carnival of human oddities camps near the Old Man as people flock to see the show. The Old Man is reduced to being an unwanted pet, and after six years, he mends his wings and flies away. Nudity, simulated sex with a spider woman, and the ugliness of human exploitation definitely put this fantasy in a category not for children.
