"Forbidden Cuba" is a dramatic comedy. It follows Gil Bigelow (writer-director Art Jones), an American businessman sent on a covert mission to Cuba to find an executive gone rogue and plant the seeds for future business expansion. On arrival, Gil quickly gets swallowed in the unknowns of Havana. Traveling deeper into the island, he's stripped of his routines, gadgets and bearings, and finds his eyes opened to the beauty and vibrant culture of Cuba - challenging his corporate directives, his identity and everything he's known. Without permits, permission or a Plan B, "Forbidden Cuba" was filmed guerrilla-style on location to reveal a nation on the verge of dramatic change. Combining narrative storytelling with documentary film making, it's both a cautionary tale of an American "conquistador" in Cuba and the first American feature filmed on the island since the communist revolution of 1959.
