Its subject now reveals itself as political and social freedom in Castro's Cuba and this is what makes it an intelligent companion piece to Memories of Underdevelopment, Alea's earlier film. Jul 3, 2009 | Rating: 4/5

It's a clear-eyed critique of the revolution's treatment of gay Cubans and, as such, it's a brave and important piece of film-making. Jul 3, 2009 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

A clear call for tolerance, deftly executed by a director for whom the personal and the political were indivisible. Jul 3, 2009 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

It's rather long-winded and the politics are pretty boring to an outsider. Jul 3, 2009 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

A superb Cuban film from 1993, a little classic about gay freedom and its aspirations versus Fidel Castro and his Marxist straitjacketing. Jul 3, 2009 | Full Review…
