During her visit to Cuba in 1963, only four years after Fidel Castro came to power, director Agnès Varda decided to explore the post-revolution Cuban culture and society. As the Instituto Cubano del Arte e Industria Cinematográficos didn't grant her permission to shoot a film, instead, filmmaker Agnès Varda returned home with thousands of pictures she took while on vacation. This delightful black-and-white composition, described by Varda as "a mixture of socialism and cha-cha-cha", where the editing resembles a choreography, intermingles the photos with catchy Cuban rhythms while exploring the effects of the revolution on Cuba's people.
