Plot

In the dynamic whirlwind of Cuba Libre, a raucous comedy with a sharp edge, a family of audacious anarchist squatters find themselves catapulted from their self-proclaimed 'cultural centre' by an overzealous reporter's expose. This unexpected eviction swiftly ignites a reckless car chase that culminates at the grand doors of the Cuban Embassy in Madrid. As if fate conspired, their arrival coincides with a media frenzy stirred by Fidel Castro's startling announcement of Cuba's first democratic elections. With a whiff of an opportunity to garner international attention for their cause, these radical misfits, as diverse as they are daring, audaciously seize the embassy. This daring act unfurls into an 'ideological occupation' which, much to their delight, sparks a global scandal. Their audacious stunt stirs a chaotic blend of political upheaval, media madness and police pressure, all under the watchful eyes of an ambitious diplomat who becomes their unlikely ally. Cuba Libre is a riotous comedy for the MTV generation that pulls no punches, gleefully skewering Fidel Castro, the Cuban revolution, the squatter movement, the media, the police, and political hypocrisy at large. Crafted with acidic wit and biting humour, this outrageous tale weaves a vibrant tapestry of adventure and anarchy, delivering an unforgettable cinematic experience that is as provocative as it is entertaining.
