The Cuban socialism of former folk hero Fidel Castro threatens to finally fail. The island state is sinking deeper and deeper into crisis. The daily life of many people is characterized by shortages of electricity, food and a shortage of medicines. Each of the reform attempts in recent decades can no longer hide the fact that the country, which has been subject to sanctions for decades, is becoming increasingly isolated and economically dependent. The monetary reform that began in 2021 is also causing major problems. Rampant inflation is rife, leading to horrendous price increases. Food is scarce, the queues in front of the few government stores are getting longer. Poverty is increasing. The remarkable inventiveness of Cubans in dealing with the everyday crisis is reaching its limit. Images of the revolutionaries of yesteryear are fading on the streets of the capital Havana and across the island. Official voices are still spreading their ideology, while ordinary people are losing hope for improvement. #dwdocumentary #documentary #cuba #cubanrevolution ـــــ DW Documentary brings you information beyond the headlines.
