synopsis
In 1981 an exhibition of modern Cuban art toured San Francisco and New York, sparking an interest in the topic and the artists themselves. The first part of this documentary looks at Cuban artists at work in their studios or at home, holding forth on their art, their own lives, and their objectives. The second part looks at the exhibition, with a commentary on the entries -- very informative for Americans cut off from Cuba since January, 1961.
