The film suggests agroecology as option and necessity for constructing Food Sovereignty, regarding Cuba’s experience as worldwide reference; it makes us think another kind of countryside is possible.

Short Synopsis

Cuban Agroecology arises as a response to food crisis, based on food self-sufficiency values, education,as well as intergenerational and multidisciplinary popular participation of the entire population. Within a global crisis context, this movement today exports ancient wisdom, positioning Cuba as a sustainable and ecological food production leader.

Long synopsis:

After having been prepared for many years,Cuban revolution starts in 1959. The victory of Socialism on the island entails the United States to impose an international economic blockade against Cuba. As a result of this, the economy results in a very fluent exchange with the USSR, mainly of Cuban sugar cane, for almost all basic resources. In 1989, as the USSR collapses, Cuba is left out of supplies. This generated an economy imbalance resulting in food security issues, which left the country in chaos. It is then when Cuban Agroecology arises and develops in response to food crisis, based on food self-sufficiency values, education, as well as intergenerational and multidisciplinary popular participation of the entire population. Within a global crisis context, this movement exports ancient wisdom, positioning Cuba as a sustainable and ecological food production leader.

Director’s Biofilmography

Juan Pablo Lepore was born in the Capital City of Buenos Aires. He studied Image and Sound Design at the University of Buenos Aires. Together with Nicolás van Caloen, he founded Documentary Collective Seeds in 2010 which, in short documentaries format, shows the filming work carried out on different trips, getting to know grassroots social organizations struggling against the capitalist system. He returns to Argentina in 2013 and associates to DOCA (Documentalistas de Argentina (Argentine Documentary Makers)) with a clear vision of contributing to the local documentary scene with the recorded experiences. "Agroecología en Cuba" (Agroecology in Cuba) is his fourth feature film; the previous ones are "Sin Patrón: una revolución permanente" (No boss: a permanent revolution) (2014), "La Jugada del Peón: el agronegocio letal" (The pawn’s move: the deadly agribusiness) (2015) and "Olvídalos y volverán por más: megaminería y neoliberalismo"(Forget about them and they will come for more: mega-mining and neoliberalism) (2016).

"The images show an unusually green and fertile Havana. The interviewees' words, especially the recurrence of certain diminutives, show a respectful, harmonious and loving relationship with the earth."

By María Bertoni for “Espectadores.com.ar”

"The interesting thing about Agroecology in Cuba is that it suggests thinking how this kind of practices could be carried out in other countries dominated by neoliberal policies that impose not only prices, but also the very food that one should consume."

Our very special guest:

Mama Marimba Ani: Is an Afrikan-Centered Cultural Scientist, engaged in the reconceptualization of the Afrikan Experience from the perspective of Afrikan people and also is known for introducing the term “Maafa” to describe what is known as the Afrikan Holocaust. She served as an SNCC field secretary in the Freedom Summer of 1964 and was later brought to Hunter College in the City University of New York, under the tutelage of Nana Dr. John Henrik Clarke, where she taught for 25 years. A partial list of the courses that she delivered include: Afrikan Civilization; Afrikan Spirituality in the Diaspora; Women in Afrika; Women in the Afrikan Diaspora; Men in the Afrikan Diaspora; Afrikan Spiritual Thought Systems; The Afrikan World View; The Work of Cheikh Anta Diop; The Work of Ayi Kwei Armah; Theories of White Racism.

In addition, she created the Maat/Maafa/Sankofa Paradigm as part of the development of an Afrikan Cultural Science and Social Theory. She is the founding director of the Afrikan Heritage Afterschool Program (AHAP) in Harlem New York (1983-1998) and after leaving the academy now directs this programme in Atlanta. Mama Marimba is an active member of Us Lifting Us, an Afrikan/Black economic cooperative, and the Association for the Study of Classical Afrikan Civilizations. She is author of a number of ground breaking books: Let the Circle Be Unbroken: The Implications of African Spirituality in the Diaspora (1989); Yurugu: An African-centered Critique of European Cultural Thought and Behavior: African-Centered Critique of European Thought and Behavior (1994). Ideologically, Mama Marimba considers herself “a Garveyite, An Afrikan Sovereignist, and a Race Woman” and in Mosiah 2015 Mama Marimba was appointed the UNIA-ACL Ambassador of Race First Sovereign Development.
