🎬 ON THE ROOFTOPS OF HAVANA
A film by Pedro Ruiz
Documentary | 80 min | 2019 | Original Spanish with French subtitles
Above the crumbling streets of Havana lies a hidden rooftop world — a patchwork village suspended over the city. Amid a severe housing crisis, residents like Roberto, Lala, Arturo, and others have created a life in the sky. From their rooftop perches, they reflect on a society undergoing profound change after more than 60 years of revolution.
