THE GREENING OF CUBA

When trade relations with the socialist bloc collapsed in 1990, Cuba

lost 80 percent of its pesticide and fertilizer imports and half its

petroleum—the mainstays of its highly industrialized agriculture.

Challenged with growing food for 11 million in the face of the

continuing U.S. embargo, Cuba embarked on the largest conversion to

organic farming ever attempted. The Greening of Cuba reminds us that

developed and developing nations alike can choose a healthier

environment and still feed their people.

38min. 1996, Spanish with English subtitles.

HASTA LA VICTORIA SIEMPRE (FOREVER UNTIL VICTORY)

This film by Cuban director Santiago Alvarez contains televised

speeches by Ernesto Che Guevara, intercut with photographs and

footage from the hills of Bolivia. In one speech, Che discusses the

importance of the Cuban revolution to Latin America and the role of

the U.S. in perpetuating poverty in Bolivia.

28min. 1965, Spanish with English subtitles.

Films shown on big screen by projector. Drinks and snacks provided.
