Marking 100 Years Since the Birth of Fidel Castro
Thursday, 27 August 2026
Time: 6pm
Glasgow Film Theatre
A journey through the dramatic early years of the Cuban Revolution, when impossible dreams became possible. Guided by Fidel Castroโs own words and the stunning black and white footage from the iconic newsreels of Santiago Alvarez, we witness some of the defining moments that transformed Cuba and influenced the world.
This timely, beautifully edited, short documentary offers us a window to a hope filled past. A past that can still be the future - โVenceremosโ, We Shall Overcome.
Produced, curated and edited by Havana Glasgow Film Festival in collaboration with FIDSA.
