About Fidel
Cuba, as we knew it, is dying. The US Embassy has just opened in Cuba, and the Cuban in the USA after 54 years. Cubans are craving to be connected to the Internet, buy at Zara, eat at Burger King and have Apple gadgets Nevertheless, Fidel, the leader of the Revolution, is alone and hiding. He is, like Cuba, in decline.
Directed by Eduardo Casanova, Fidel leans on a strong ensemble — José Luis de Madariaga, Ileana Wilson — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2016.
