Oceans Are the Real Continents
Alex and Edith, a young couple in their 30s, live their relationship made up of small gestures and everyday life among the ruins of Cuban buildings. Milagros, an elderly woman now retired, tries to survive by selling peanuts and spends her days listening to the radio and reading old letters. Frank and Alain, two nine-year-old friends, go to school and dream of emigrating together to the United States to become Major League Baseball players. Against the backdrop of San Antonio De Los Baños, a town in inland Cuba where time seems to stand still, these three narratives and their respective worlds unfold. Over this mosaic of contemporaneity, however, brought to life through the characters' memories, hovers the specter of separation, the true great scourge of Cuban society.

Rewatch confirms…this is a masterpiece. The perspective storytelling, layered messaging, aesthetic choices, sound design, all so delicately and intentionally put together. The art speaks for itself. There are so many backdrop-worthy stills you can take from this; as well as quotes. Watching this the second time was so much more enriching & satisfying. I took pages of notes that I will try to condense into a concis…
