Fidel (2001)
8/10
Excellent insight into one history's greatest persons
14 October 2009
For many who watched this film and thought it was too pro Castro, you have a serious issue.This flick was only about Castro and nothing else. It was not about what he did but simply who he is.

Seamlessly stitched with archived footage, the film was an intimate look into the life of Fidel and his family and friends.

A gentle giant, that has been made to be a monster by Democratic hindsight.

A heartwarming film that has captured its place on the Jamaica World Cinema Showcase as one of its best documentary films. A rare look into the life of one of history's greatest influences.

Well received at The Jamaica World Cinema Showcase. A Best Of JWCS Nominee for "Best Full length Picture". The Film takes a look at the issue of Illegal immigration and ghetto survival.

Audience members, after watching the film were asked to vote on the film and ended up with a four star rating.

"Immersive".... Tanya Batson Savage, Ministry Of Youth Culture and sports.
