The Survivors (1979)
Directed by Tomás Gutiérrez Alea
Overview
A bourgeois Cuban family of aristocratic origin locks itself into its mansion when the Cuban Revolution comes to power, waiting for the new regime to be overthrown. As time passes, they regress to older and older systems of political order, from capitalism to feudalism to “primitive savagery.” Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2017.
