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.

Looking from the US, we can ask how a modern socialist mass party can be built and grow so quickly in a country not known for its left wing traditions. The NYC Local of the Socialist Party USA is happy to invite

The words "health care" and "comedy" aren't usually found in the same sentence, but in Academy Award winning filmmaker Michael Moore's movie ' SiCKO,' they go together hand in (rubber) glove.
