  • In Cuba, most roads are in good condition. But in the countryside, it's a different story! Especially since there are very few cars in working order. It must be said that for almost 60 years Cuba has been cut off from the world. The United States has placed the country under an economic embargo. New cars are almost non-existent and spare parts are almost impossible to find. The Cubans have therefore become the kings of resourcefulness, they keep cars alive, most of which date from the 1950s. They are in their image, a brilliant mechanical crossbreeding. The front seats of Diosmar's Chevrolet come from a French 404, the steering from a Romanian car, the rear seats from a Toyota, in short, in France, they would give cold sweats to more than one technical controller! Especially since the engine is nothing but a generator! Not enough to spin at full speed but enough to tow the beautiful 77-year-old American. The taxi driver breaks into a cold sweat on the descents, the Chevrolet's trajectories are rather approximate. On the banks of the river, Toa, Luis, builds his bamboo raft. No road loosens his farm, going down the river is the only way to deliver his banana production. A sweat test awaits him in the middle of the currents.
    Directors: Daniel Lainé, David Geoffrion

Anyone here can look up the clause to end that so terrible embargo which only prohibits americans from shopping/staying/eating at military owned business, why???! Because Cubans cannot have private businesses, all has to be for them and only them.
