Cuba After Castro: Film screening hosted by CODEPINK & PSL Chicago 08/19/26
About this Event
As the United States continues to tighten sanctions and escalate pressure on Cuba, public understanding of the island is often shaped by decades of political narratives rather than firsthand perspectives. Cuba After Castro offers a rare opportunity to hear directly from Cuba’s first post-Revolution leader as he reflects on the country’s history, its revolutionary project, and the immense challenges of governing through intensified U.S. sanctions, the COVID-19 pandemic, economic hardship, and domestic unrest.
Directed by Abby Martin and Matthew Belen, the 84-minute documentary explores the life and political formation of Miguel Díaz-Canel while examining the broader forces shaping contemporary Cuba and the future of U.S.-Cuba relations.
Film Runtime: 84 minutes
Languages: English and Spanish
