How often do we get to see Cuban films here in America?
How many Cuban films have a gay protagonist?
Strawberry and Chocolate is a wonderful Cuban film that features a glimpse into Havana and the Cuban gay subculture juxtaposed against dedicated, communist college students.
David is the college student who believes in the system. Diego is a gay writer who has friends in the art world. Nancy is stuck between the two worlds, and having difficulty coping. Through his association with the others, David receives an education he wouldn't get at the university.
The film is about love and desire: love of country; love of art; love between men and women; love between men - romantic and platonic. Thank you Robert Redford and Miramax for bringing this to the States
