Alice in Wondertown (1991)
Directed by Daniel Díaz Torres
Overview
A biting satire about life in contemporary Cuba. Alicia, a young drama instructor, is sent to the small town of Maravillas de Noveras, which is itself an exaggerated, but very ingenious reflection of the real Cuba. Her adventures there are almost as surreal as the ones experienced by Lewis Carroll’s character, reflecting patterns of indoctrination, coercion, absolutism, and many other everyday problems in Cuban society.
