Oceans Are The Real Continents

Written & Directed By Tommaso Santambrogio

A poignant triptych set in contemporary Cuba, shot in stunning black and white: Debut filmmaker Santambrogio renders the ache of leaving and being left with both gritty realism and sensual elegance. Two young artists in love confront the collision of his passion for her with her burning desire to leave Cuba behind; a sensitive, baseball-obsessed boy detects the impending trauma of his family uprooting for Miami; and an elderly woman, solitary in her ramshackle home, enshrines letters she received from her husband, taken from her three decades earlier fighting a faraway war.
