Film Screening: The Man of Two Havanas
Director Vivien Lesnik Weisman will be present to talk about the making of her terrific movie!!
With a childhood filled with bombings and assassination attempts
on her father, the filmmaker explores her relationship with him and
the Cuba he left behind. Through the prism of a daughter we explore
the past, the present, and the nature of social responsibility and
personal sacrifice. The movie contains highly controversial top-secret
audiotapes of a CIA trained Cuban exile terrorist who was in the
middle of a trial and incarcerated by Homeland Security.
