LAST SUMMER is a collaborative documentary codirected by Mariona Guiu and Lina Badenes, together with a group of adolescents from Nuevo Vedado. Over the course of several weeks the teenagers received training in audiovisual production with the objective that they each direct and shoot a short documentary based on a particular aspect of their social, cultural, economic or family environment.
Against the backdrop of the changes that Cuba is experiencing today, the teenagers portray their country’s situation by producing a collection of documentaries which, combined with the footage by the directors, create an unusual collaborative documentary in which the young people are not only the main characters but the creators.
