- 43 minutes long with English subtitles. Direction and production by Juanamaría Cordones-Cook. Comment: Documentary presents the personal and artistic journey of Fátima de la Caridad Patterson (Santiago de Cuba 1951), storyteller, actress, theater director, and playwright, who has been distinguished with the Premio Nacional de Teatro 2017, the highest theater award in Cuba. Founder of the Macubá theater group in Santiago de Cuba, Fátima combats disremembering. She addresses issues of race, gender, and popular religion, through theater and oral history, a genre she masterly practices and incorporates in her artistic work. In a combination of performances, rhythms, and dances, this documentary presents the origin and development of this charismatic artist who with a strong sense of belonging brings to her creations her personal experience intertwined with traditions and components of the ancestral African heritage. The film is enriched by comments of leading Cuban intellectuals, Alberto Lescay Merencio, Enrique Bonne, Vivian Martínez Tabares, Georgina Herrera, Orlando Vergés, and Marino Wilson Jay, complemented by images of Santiago with music by José Aquiles Virelles Rodríguez and the Conga de los Hoyos.
Me encanta. Conozco bien la villa de Santiago de Cuba y me apasiona su cultura. Fátima es una gran maestra del teatro, una gran mujer, la admiro. Conozco bien a Marino Wilson y José Aguiles.
El extracto de su documental me gusto muchísimo y quisiera verlo en su totalidad y enseñarlo a los amigos de Santiago de Cuba con los cuales intercambio. Cómo sería posible ? Saludos desde Francia (me voy a Santiago el 5 de marzo).
Señora Cordones Cook,vVí en su Web su trabajo impresionante. Varias obras me interesan.
