MEMORIAS DEL DESARROLLO - 2010 Redwood City International Latino Film Festival

Sergio Garcet is an intellectual that leaves the Cuban revolution and 'underdevelopment' behind only to find himself at odds with the ambiguities of his new life in New York City, the "developed world."

Frustrated by his publisher's lack of interest in his new novel and his increased inability to relate to others, he builds collages depicting his mordant vision of the world. A character study of a loner with no clear-cut politics or ideology, struggling with age, desire, and the impossibility of belonging to any society.

The film's narrative is a mash-up of flashbacks, daydreams, and hallucinations comprising live-action, animation, and newsreel footage assembled to suggest the way personal memory works, subjectively and emotionally. Based on the novel by Edmundo Desnoes, also author of Memories of Underdevelopment, Memorias del Desarrollo it is an homage to the Cuban classic Memorias del Subdesarrollo (1968) by Tomás Gutiérrez Alea.

Official Selection at Sundance Film Festival 2010. Winner Best Picture 11th Havana Film Festival New York, 2010.
