This Big Bang ended Spanish colonial dominance in the Americas and ushered in the era of the American Empire. At the same time and place, a powerful tool of conquest was born: cinema as propaganda. In his latest film, Hubert Sauper explored a century of interventionism and myth-making together with the extraordinary people of Havana\u2014who he calls \u201cyoung prophets\u201d\u2014to interrogate time, imperialism and cinema itself.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<strong>Acclaimed nonfiction filmmaker Hubert Sauper turns his rigorous but compassionate gaze on this fascinating place in <\/strong><em><strong>Epicentro<\/strong><\/em><strong>\u2026 Sauper and his co-editor&#8230; work the material with a remarkable fluidity and gracefulness that&#8217;s consistently engaging and surprising<\/strong>.&#8221; \u2013 Leslie Felperin,<em> The Hollywood Reporter<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;[<strong>A] tender portrait of Cuba.
