Sons of Cuba

United Kingdom 2009, 88 mins

Director: Andrew Lang

During the 50 years of the Cuban Revolution, access to the country's key institutions was rarely, if ever, granted.

Now, however, the story of such an institution is revealed for the first time, in Andrew Lang's powerful debut documentary, SONS OF CUBA.

Following the young residents of the legendary Havana Boxing Academy, Lang sets out on a daunting mission to tell the inside story of Cuba's child boxers, from the glory to the perils they face on a daily basis.

Exploring the depths of this unique tradition and the effects on the children on both sides of the rope, this poignant and revealing documentary is anchored by interviews with both the children and the men who relentlessly groom them into the world’s supreme fighting athletes.
