Cuba Libre Civic Assosiation presents

Why Do We Want to Talk about Cuba?

The idea of Cuba Libre Civic Association is to inform Bulgarian society of events and processes in contemporary Cuba and to encourage a new dialogue between the people of Bulgaria and Cuba based on the values of freedom.

This year the program will be held in three main parts:

• marathon of Cuban documentary and feature films from the last 5 years never shown in public like the famous Fernando Perez’s SUITE HABANA, recognized as the best Cuban film in the past 10 years and granted Goya 2004 for best Spanish foreign picture

• premiere of Pedro Juan Gutierrez’s “Dirty Havana Trilogy” firstly being banned in Cuba but eventually turned out to be a world-known bestseller right after publishing at the late 90’s. Now the book opens the Janet-45 publish series “New Cuban Literature”

• “Hable con cuba” – an open conversation about Cuba where everyone is invited to come and share what they remember, know and think of Cuba and to give their wishes to Cuban people as well as to hear the memories and knowledge of others.

The Cuba Libre Days take place for the third time after January 2006, Sofia and November 2006, Plovdiv.
