Description
 
A celebrated Cuban film photographed with a lush palette, this "startlingly beautiful" (The New Yorker) masterpiece is based on an incident from 18th century Cuban history. In what amounts to a cinematic moral tale, a pious slaveholder decides to purify his soul and instruct his slaves in the glories of Christianity by inviting 12 of them to participate in a reenactment of the Last Supper. In Spanish with English subtitles.

Tomas Gutierrez Alea---Cuba---1976---110 mins.
