Movie overview and plot by Anagha Shashank
Movie in-short: People born in Cuba before the revolution near the end of their lives and realize the battle cry "patria o muerte" means death.
Movie story-line: Using Cuban cities as the backdrop to personal stories, the renowned documentary maker Vitaly Mansky depicts the complexity of contemporary Cuba. As the regime begins to slightly relax its iron grip, the island begins to slowly open up to the world. Despite the economic hardship, a life full of passion, temperament and energy still pulsates in Cuban cities. Food is rationed and decent living conditions is an illusion for many. The dreams of today’s senior citizens, who believed in Fidel and his communist experiment 50 years ago, have not been fully realized. Children of these revolutionaries still follow the ideals of the revolution but do not seem all that convinced. Instead young people prefer to enjoy small pleasures the regime allows for. While many Cubans look for life outside of Cuba, for tourists the island is for many reasons very special destination. Motherland or Death is the story of real life played out against the picturesque background of today’s Cuba.
Movie synopsis: Saw this movie as part of the One World documentary festival and I was deeply touched. It evokes the state of a proud nation while coping with the daily misery. It makes no judgments but juxtaposes powerful images that abound in symbols. The photography is enchanting and you wish some frames would linger for longer. The images are strong and highly evocative and capture the essence of the Cuban culture without falling into the touristic clichés nor the pantheism of human rights activists. It's a well balanced insight into the present day lives of the Cuban people. One of the best documentaries I have seen!
