As Cuban living in Cuba i was aware about the way political prisoners , including rebels from Castros'guerrilla and soldiers from prior dictator Batista were treated on Cuban's jails and prison. Once living in Miami i was able to become a friend of one of the many survivals from these periods and he used to mention all these cruelty and multiple tortures he and his jails mates suffers, also what they did to their families. Definitely war crimes and human right violations constantly performed under Fidel Castro regime. It is the first real movie were these historical facts have been documented. Please pay attention the the end, it is s reality, those criminals are coming to the States and live the American dream enjoying welfare and Medicare without even questioning them. Only a few, thanks to brave witness still alive of his crimes has been deported or they escape back to Cuba, avoiding trial.
Most be watch so we never forget!
This movie is a sobering look at the suffering of many brave people. The violence in this movie is a pointed reminder that there are those in the world who do not share in the freedoms that many others do. A tough but important watch that will leave you better informed about the history of Cuban dictatorship. Highly recommend!

As time marches forward and those who were present and lived during a period of history pass away or forget, that very history is invented and re-invented before it is retold to the youth who never lived through it. This story is the authentic horror of those who were subjected to a brutal psychobiological torture for their political dissent. The plot and development of the film is very well organized and the film remains captivating throughout the nearly 2 hours. This is a film that will leave you with much to reflect upon. I highly recommend.
This movie is amazing being a daughter of a political prisoner and watched it with my dad. Everything in the movie is spot on to the reality these men went through. Im glad the story was told.
