PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A very personal and contemporary diary, "REGRESO" documents Cuban filmmaker Luis Remesar's return to Havana, the city of his birth — exactly 38 years to the day of his leaving. It's while in Havana — a once beautiful metropolis destroyed by 40 years of neglect — that Luis connects deeply with a culture and a spirit of people he left behind as a young boy. His use of honest and haunting footage, authentic Cuban music, as well as up-close and intimate interviews with his own father — at 74 still a committed Revolutionary — as well as the "baby boomers" of the regime, Remesar weaves a compassionate, all-encompassing, inspiring "fly-on-the-wall" look at the political, emotional, spiritual, and physical state of Cuba today.
