HAVANA, FROM ON HIGH
By Pedro Ruiz

The chronic shortage of housing in Central Havana has pushed the city upwards, where life spills out onto the rooftops. Resilient and remarkable, these rooftop dwellers have a privileged point of view on a society in the process of major transformation.

This wondrous documentary tells the story of a secret village, hidden from the clamor of the streets below, nestled above a decaying district. The makeshift houses are inhabited by Arturo, Tita, Pedro, Lala, Roberto, Jose, Reynol, Juan, Alejandro, Maria and Omar.

Like many others, they have been forced to make their home on these rooftops. But from their perch, they bear witness to extraordinary change below.
