Well, here in Brazil I met once a Cuban which was traveling and was a undergraduated student who wanted to vecame a filmmaker. Here we do not have the same incentives that attract dissidents nor we offer incentives in the form of citizenship for people who risk their lives in improvised boats (if US offered the same incentive for other latin american countries, lots of people in other countries would also build improvised boats and risk their lives like the Cubans do). We talked a lot about movies.Regarding Cuba and its government, his oppinion was mostly positive, with only some criticisms. And, oh, he was an alive person.
Absolutely. The dead tell no tales.
