Oliver Stone, Spain/USA, 2003, 99 minutes
In February 2002, the US film maker Oliver Stone gained unprecedented access to Fidel Castro for a one-to-one interview over three days. They dine at the Terraza restaurant, discussing among other things the Cuban missile crisis, the US embargo and Cuba's place in the world. Does Stone pose really awkward questions? He is taken by his subject's charisma and eloquence and gives a fascinating insight into the mind of the man who has defied the USA for so long.
Discussion led by Dr Francisco Dominguez, head of Centre for Brazilian and Latin American Studies at Middlesex University and an Executive member of the Cuba Solidarity Campaign; a visitor from Cuba is also expected.
Venue: Renoir Cinema. Tickets £6. Concessions £4.
Discount to annual members £1.
Doors open 10.30am. Screening starts 11.00am. Tickets at the door.
