Film Description: Looking to really find out how the blockade affects
Cuba? Sick of the media spin? Want something more substantive on the
Cuba debate? "Bloqueo: Looking at the U.S. Embargo Against Cuba" is
a newly-released documentary by two young filmmakers that offers some
answers. Featuring voices from the streets of Havana and the Cuban
countryside, Bloqueo (or blockade) lets Cubans speak for themselves
about how they have been affected by the blockade, and what it means
to live in Cuba today. The 45-minute documentary also features analysis
from activists traveling with the Pastors for Peace Caravan — an annual
journey calling attention to this controversial policy. Bloqueo looks
at the successes that have made Cuba a model in healthcare, environmental
stewardship, and other arenas that forge an alternative, and ultimately
more sustainable, system.
