Made in Cuba, Lucia, tells three stories of three periods of Cuban history, from the vantage point of three women, each called Lucia. Directed by the world famous Humberto Solas (Manuela, Simparele) this tri-partite feature melds Cuban revolutionary fervour with feminist and social politics, catapulting Solas into the international spotlight.

Focussing on women from different classes - aristocracy, the bourgeoisie and peasantry - with each participating in the struggle for Cuba's liberation, this political allegory is segmented into three episodes, with each set in seminal historical periods during Cuba's beleaguered history - the independence war against Spain, the Machado dictatorship and post-Revolution.

As each woman confronts the specific historical dilemmas - personal liberation in the face of class and sex discrimination and the decolonisation and reformation of Cuba - their stories provide an accurate and illuminating historical survey of an emergent national consciousness, leading up to and following the Revolution.

With a unique and stunning documentary style that insists on showing, rather than telling, the filmmaking itself bears testament to the struggle, detaching itself from imposed styles of Western filmmaking to become a pioneering piece of Latin American cinema. It is easy to see why critics site Lucia as a landmark in Cuban cinema, as well as the most important film in the nascent feminist cinema of the period.
