Cinema International Presents: The Padilla Affair
Cinema International Presents: The Padilla Affair
This stunning documentary, made by a Cuban director who now lives in Spain, is built on archival government footage of the 1971 public “confession” of dissident poet Heberto Padilla. In a sweltering room filled with Cuba’s most important writers, Padilla—recently released from prison—recants his political beliefs and begins to denounce some writers in the audience for sharing his “crimes.” Presented as part of The Spanish Film Club series with the support of Pragda and the Secretary of State for Culture of Spain.
