EL REGRESADO

Cuba, early 21st century. Mandi, a young painter and recent graduate from the National Art School, returns to his small coastal town of Gibara to complete his mandatory community service. There, he reconnects with his former professor, a local artist silenced by the Cuban regime for his anti-Castro views. Mandi thus finds himself at a crossroads that clashes with his aspirations and ideals: avoiding confrontation within an oppressive political context while pursuing personal and artistic freedom. The latest film from Cuban filmmaker Armando Capó (AGOSTO) is a fictional work with autobiographical elements that paints a portrait of the struggles faced by Cuban artists. (Note adapted from Habanero Films.) DIR Armando Capó; SCR Laura Conyedo; PROD Rosa María Rodríguez Pupo. Cuba/Colombia, 2026, color, 100 min. In Spanish with English subtitles. NOT RATED
