HAILED AS ONE OF - IF NOT THE MOST - SOPHISTICATED FILM EVER TO COME OUT OF CUBA, MEMORIES OF UNDERDEVELOPMENT (MEMORIAS DEL SUBDESAROLLO) /S VISIONARY CUBAN DIRECTOR TOMÁS GUTIÉRREZ ALEA'S TOUR DE FORCE
CUBAN DIRECTOR TONG
TOUR DE FORCE.
LISTED AT NUMBER FIFTY-FOUR ON DEREK
MALCOLM'S 100 GREATEST MOVIES.
MEMORIES OF UNDERDEVELOPMENT FOLLOWS SERGIO (SERGIO CORRIERI - SOY CUBA), THROUGH HIS LIFE, FOLLOWING THE DEPARTURE OF HIS WIFE, PARENTS AND FRIENDS IN THE WAKE OF THE BAY OF PIGS FIASCO. ALONE IN A BRAVE NEW WORLD, SERGIO OBSERVES THE CONSTANT THREAT OF FOREIGN INVASION, BEFORE MEETING ELENA (DAISY GRANADOS), A YOUNG WOMAN HE SEEKS TO MOULD INTO THE IMAGE OF HIS EX-WIFE, BUT AT WHAT COST TO HIMSELF?
EVEN THOUGH DIRECTOR TOMÁS GUTIÉRREZ ALEA WAS A STAUNCH AND DEVOTED SUPPORTER OF THE REVOLUTION, MEMORIES OF UNDERDEVELOPMENT OFFERS A RAW AND UNCOMPROMISING ANALYSIS OF THE NEWLY FORMED SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT. THROUGH A MOVING BLEND OF NARRATIVE FICTION, STILL PHOTOGRAPHY AND RARE DOCUMENTARY FOOTAGE, ALEA CATALOGUES THE INTRICACIES OF THE EARLY DAYS OF THE CASTRO REGIME;
PRODUCING A STIRRING AND ENIGMATIC WORK THAT FEEDS OFF THE CULTURE OF THE VERY SUBJECT IT IS STUDYING: CUBA.
