Periodo Especial - Cuba's Special Period

A video snapshot of life in Cuba in 1993 during a two week church related study visit. Twenty delegates visited Cuban hospitals, health care clinics, a school for the visually impaired, important historical sites and a Cuban farm cooperative during the time of Periodo Especial - a time of shortages and rationing following the collapse of the Soviet bloc and the subsequent Soviet withdrawal of economic and commercial support for Cuba. The study tour was coordinated by the United Church of Christ Board for World Ministries.
Filmed, written, edited and narrated by Ed Evans.
