MIAMI, United States. – The Cuban thing could be a curious international reverberation in the most unexpected circumstances. Mother It is a movie starring Jennifer Lopezwhich Netflix announced with hype and cymbal to try to pass a pig for a poke, due to the soullessness of its workmanship.
One of those thriller for use with military operations undercoverwhere the protagonist follows an arms dealer who escapes to Havana, who seems to have the approval of the regime, like so many other criminals who have found refuge on the Island.
The recreated city it simulates a garbage dump, without the distinction that the battered Cuban capital still shows in some of its indestructible sites. There, rather false persecutions and shootings take place, considering that totalitarianism does not admit alternatives to its own violence.
Santiago de Cuba is much better as a destination for sex tourism, which presents No Time to Diewhere Ana de Armas She plays Agent Paloma, an ally of James Bond, kicking and shooting anything evil that gets in her way. This Cuban paraphernalia is at least staged in comedy time, without pretensions.
In the excellent French film The innocent, starring and directed by the actor Louis Gorrel, an ex-convict tries to reform his life through love and as he moves towards his new home he begins to dance salsa. He then tells her wife that he will take her to Havana to learn Caribbean dance properly.
In the midst of an argument totally foreign to the Island, the Cuban appears as the former fetish of rhythm and sensuality, without considering that the country has been devastated by the repressive whims of an ideology foreign to its idiosyncrasy.
International opposition to those who represent official culture is growing, however. The Good Faith case seems to have opened the floodgates of confrontation that had dissipated.
The regime’s response is characterized by its jingoistic ridiculousness; now he confuses some wusses with the pretense of troubadours again with the incarnation of what is left of the homeland.
The regime is also upset that Facebook has removed, without prior notice, the page of Alma mater, insulting magazine of communist militancy. She also complains that the poet Nancy Morejón is being attacked regarding what would be her participation as honorary president in the Poetry Market, a Parisian event that takes place from June 7 to 12 and where she will give two conferences .
The dictatorship’s protest note does not go into details but includes the attack on Morejón as part of what is now called the “cultural war” against Cuba.
Alpidio Alonso, who does have a Twitter account, despite being a spokesman for the dictatorship, aim: “The rage and impotence of the haters in the face of the Cuban revolution is unleashed today against our artists. Our solidarity with the great poet Nancy Morejón, victim of the abuse of some cowards who will not be able to silence the truth of her voice or diminish the moral stature of her example.
The truth is that the French organization had to reject the honorary presidency that it had granted to the Castro poet, thanks to the protest of the exiled writer Jacobo Machover.
It is worth remembering that Morejón has signed statements justifying manifest crimes of Castroism and has never expressed solidarity with fellow artists who today rot in the dungeons of the regime. In fact, he compared the rebellion of July 11, 2021 to a new pandemic.
By the way, for a time, militant writers, at the dawn of the Revolution, reproached him for his affinity with the El Puente group, already in opposition at that time. Fear ended up devouring his soul and his poetic art never again sided with justice.
