The film seems a film of the cold war time. There is no history but a lot of common places against the Cuban regimen. I personally have a lot of disagreement with the Cuban situation, but the film is pure propaganda and not more. I have doubts why it was produced and the interest on doing it. The characters are primary good people against bad people. To see the film is loose time.
