Por Primera Vez / For the First Time
Octavio Cortazar / 1968 /Doc / N/C/ 10mins
This short documentary gathers the experiences of a rural community in the mountains of Cuba, where cinema arrives “for the first time,” thanks to mobile cinemas created for the revolution. The film depicts the different emotions of an audience of children, women and men from the countryside when seeing the first film of their lives.
