Gustavo Rex appears on the voice credits of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas video game for using educational Spanish language. You will recognize Gustavo's Cuban accent and choice words when you play the game. Enjoy.

Where is it going to be shown and when?

If it's at a movie theater, good luck. Look at what happened to Andy Garcia's film: the Cuban-American community lo dejaron embarcado and the movie lost money.

Another good film is Bitter Sugar. If you haven't seen it, get it through Amazon.com!

Something that some Cuban Americans have done well is to document our stories in films. Films like "Improper Conduct," "Nadie Escuchaba," the documentaries of Mari Ichaso, Joe Cardona, and Agustin Blasquez are great.. And now this one seems good. However, interesting choice of some interviewees. Hmmmm... Mirta Ojito and Gonzalo Rubalcaba?? Kind of hard to stomach those two. I'm a little hestitant about them, though I can see how the producer of the film in order to avoid being accused of producing "exile propaganda" would include these characters. Well, as long as the film is balanced, I'm happy and you can't lose with Carlos Eire and Gustavo Perez Firmat on board.

Did you make the film Humberto?

I also wonder if Andy Garcia is included?
