Camilo Cienfuegos, a wayward Cuban, joins Castro’s Revolution to free his homeland from corruption and American tyranny. As he rises through the ranks alongside his best friend, Che Guevara, he’s torn between leading the revolution to liberate Cuba and serving Castro, a leader revealing himself to be just as oppressive as their enemies.
Based on a true story.
SCRIPT AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST
“A great action/war/biopic about a historical character that is less well known, providing more depth to Cuba, a place that is generally given a one-dimensional framing.”
“A smart and assured script that fully understands the thematic concepts it is taking on, bolstered by doing a good job of making idolized figures feel human along with sharp dialogue that reflects the Cuban spirit.”
