About this item

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION "Eye-opening... mouth-watering! Made with an archivists heart and a gourmands soul, Cuban Food Stories chronicles director Asori Sotos road trip around the island of his birth, searching for the flavors of his youth and the stories behind the distinctive (and sometimes disappearing) tastes of regional cuisines. Soto, a longtime U.S. resident, captures his native country at a time of transition and smartly probes the relationship between culinary traditions and cultural heritage... he imbues his film with a hand-crafted charm that perfectly suits the stories and foods he focuses on." -Variety REVIEW "Eye-opening...mouth-watering!
