Plot summary
A cameraman begins visiting Cuba in the 1970s, drawn by reports that Fidel Castro is putting social programs in place, the kind he had been fighting for in New York. He keeps coming back with his camera for the next forty-five years. Over those years he films Castro and three Cuban families, among them Angél, Cristobal and Gregorio Borrego, and Luis Amores, whose lives his policies affect. The finished work is assembled from more than a thousand hours of footage he shot since that first trip.
