“. . . a point of view and careful treatment . . . offer a very specific view of a country that has been so mythologized . . . and the controversial experience of the Cuban exile. . . . In every moment, Zaldívar attempts to understand the reasoning of those who left the country as well as . . . those who stayed behind.”

“One of the most interesting aspects of the documentary . . . is the identity crisis that Zaldívar’s father undergoes on both sides of the Florida Straits. . . . As Juan Carlos and his father negotiate their perceptions of the past and carve out their relationship in the present, we are reminded that choosing exile is not simply a finite act of traveling 90 miles to freedom.”
