"Bloqueo: Looking At The U.S. Blockade Against Cuba"


Independent New York filmmakers Rachel Dannefer and Heather Haddon traveled to Cuba with Pastors for Peace to discover the story behind the 40-year-old embargo. The result is "Bloqueo", a documentary which explores the considerable effects of the blockade upon the Cuban people. The film surveys the successes in healthcare, organic farming, and conservation that Cuba has managed over the last decades. Rachel Dannefer coordinates the National Immigrant Farming Initiative. Heather Haddon is a journalist and photographer for the "Norwood News," an award-winning Bronx community newspaper.
