Eusebio Leal: Film on Cuban Historian in Mexico
A documentary on the life and work of Havana City historian Eusebio Leal will be screened in Mexico City Thursday.
The film, produced by Mexican Alejandra Ochoam, had support from the Lam Culture House Center, and parallels a photo exhibition by Silvia Martinez entitled "Siguiendo los pasos de Eusebio" (Following Eusebio's Footsteps).
La Jornada daily states that Leal has tirelessly worked for over 30 years rescuing Havana, without selling or privatizing, and has made long-term moral and spiritual investments.
From that effort ambitious programs have emerged, like children's rooms in museums, residential homes for the elderly, and the need to build a primary school next to the museum.
The documentary "Leal al Tiempo" (Leal on Time) is not a biography or a story of his academic and professional work, but of Leal the dreamer, the daily reported.
