Event Description
Monthly movie night showing the film doc - the Power of Community.
When the Soviet Union collapsed in 1990, Cuba's economy went into a tailspin. With imports of oil cut by more than half – and
food by 80 percent – people were desperate. This film tells of the
hardships and struggles as well as the community and creativity of the
Cuban people during this difficult time. Cubans share how they
transitioned from a highly mechanized, industrial agricultural system
to one using organic methods of farming and local, urban gardens.
Cuba, the only country that has faced such a crisis – the massive
reduction of fossil fuels – is an example of options and hope.
