It all started a number of years ago when our cast and crew flew to Havana over what became the first of our recent hundred year storms. As the East Coast was bracing for a very big hit, we flew from New York via Toronto, LA via Mexico and directory from Paris to shoot the first American feature film in Cuba since 1959. After 19 days of crisscrossing the island without permits or permission, we negotiated customs one last time and boarded our flights back home. We continued to film our lead character, Gil Bigelow on the flight back to New York and then in the cab as he finally headed home. The cameras never stopped rolling. Then I slept for two days straight. Afterwards we regrouped; shot 8 more days in order to properly depict the wonderfully corporate town of Kennelworth, NJ, did months of editing, lots of color correcting, an insane amount of fundraising and a surprisingly delicate sound mix so that we can now finally announce that Art Jones’ newest feature film, ‘Forbidden Cuba’ will be released world wide on March 8th. Many thanks to our tireless cast, hardworking crew and very generous Kickstarter supporters: Art Jones, Raphael Duvernay, Corentin Vinçon, Joe Foley, Benjamin Wolf, Andrew Jernigan, John Downing Bonafede, Noah Wehle, Pascal Akesson, Julia Gorbach, David Marantz, Rafael Garcia, Fox Cie, Mila Matveeva, Matt Gordon and Raphael Kourilsky #ForbiddenCuba #GuerillaFilmBrigade #OnePartFilmTwoPartsRevolution #GuerillaFilm #CheAndFidel #FidelAndRaul #FirstAmericanFeatureShotInCubaSince1959 #SecondFront #Havana #Vinales #Cienfuegos #Santiago #Trinidad #OldHavana #Kennelworth #TheGardenState #CorporateAmerica #CantGetArrestedByATrombonePlayer #MissionImprobable #GilBigelow #JerryBUngler #TheFrenchman #TheSilentGuide #TheTedFullerEffect #HeWantedAPromotion #HeGotARevolution Forbidden Cuba - Website http://www.forbiddencuba.com (at Havana, Cuba) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co2SQe7LABe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
