Yet again, the notion that poverty and squalor have some mysterious virtue in themselves, expressed in a modified form in eulogies of plain-living and high-thinking, etc, is still prevalent among many who might be supposed to know better. For Socialism, poverty and squalor are unmitigated evils, and a rationally conceived and directed luxury in material things for all alike, is its direct aim. This notion of asceticism, of the virtue of mortifying the flesh, of self-abnegation on the part of the individual, derived from Christian doctrine as interpreted by the Puritanism of the rising small middle-class of former days, is attributed to Socialism as a part of its ethics : is arbitrarily foisted, that is, on to a system of thought for which it has no meaning and in which it has no place.

The plot, or rather plots, of " I Am Cuba" feverishly explore the seductive, decadent (and marvelously photogenic) world of Batista’s Cuba — deliriously juxtaposing images of rich Americans and bikini-clad beauties sipping cocktails poolside with scenes of ramshackle slums filled with hungry children and gaunt old people. Using wide-angle lenses that distort and magnify and filters that transform palm trees into giant white feathers, Urusevsky’s acrobatic camera achieves wild gravity-defying angles as it glides effortlessly through long continuous shots.
Martin Scorcese said, upon first seeing it in the early '90s (after retrieving one of the two remaining prints from an the national film archive in Moscow) that if he had seen "Yo Soy Cuba" at the beginning of his career, it would have changed his directing style.
