Olga speaks on the WOMEN IN FILM panel - Saturday at 4pm.
Olga Merediz, a well-known New York -based actress, decides to return to her birthplace, Guantanamo, Cuba to reunite with the nanny her family was forced to leave behind after the Cuban revolution.
In the journey she not only discovers how truly connected they are but also the bond she shares with her complex biological mother.
ANGELINA
How do we process and make sense of longing for a place and people we only half-remember? What does it mean to be Cuban in America? How do we navigate the blended world that is our new home?
Through the lens of our protagonist, Julia, we explore this world – set in 1991 New York and Cuba.
