A Night With The Rolling Stones (18)
Director: Patricia Ramos
Cuba, 2023, 92', Spanish with English subtitles
March 2016: Havana is getting ready for the arrival of The Rolling Stones for an outdoor free concert, the first by a rock group since the fall of Batista. Rita is part of what is known as the “survivors”; those over forty who stayed behind while others left the island in search of a better life. Her son wants to move in with his father in Holland, her mother insists that she is dying and, to make matters worse, she is going out with a married man. And then, as the concert is about to begin, she runs into a former boyfriend. Is this the beginning of something new for Rita?
The film will be introduced by Guy Baron, Senior Lecturer in Spanish at Aberystwyth University.
The screening is sponsored by Screen Cuba.
