- Summary:
- In 1968, Castro took Landau on a weeklong jeep ride through the eastern mountains. There, he plays baseball with a group of peasants, visits his pre-school, and trades jokes with a 98 year old man. Fidel also listens to people complaining about food distribution, bad roads and transportation. The film contains archive footage of the Bay of Pigs invasions and scenes of Che Guevara, alongside interviews with political prisoners.
