This delirious 1964 Soviet-Cuban celebration of Communist kitsch mixes Slavic solemnity with Latin sensuality as it explores Batista’s Cuba and the 1959 revolution. It’s one of Jonathan’s must-see movies, which he and Suzana studied together while researching a Bob Marley film. Initially disregarded, I Am Cuba was rereleased in 1995 and is now considered one of the great discoveries in cinema.
