Epicentro is a 2020 Spanish-language documentary film directed by Hubert Sauper.[1] The film stars Oona Chaplin[2] and has been described as a travelogue focused on Cuba.[3] At the 2020 Sundance Film Festival, it won the Grand Jury Prize in the World Cinema Documentary Competition[4] and it has a 90% rating on review-aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes. The critical consensus on Rotten Tomatoes reads, "As evocative as it is thought-provoking, Epicentro takes an affectionate look at a people and culture -- and delivers a quietly effective rejoinder to lingering Cold War resentment."[5] It runs for 107 minutes and is in English and Spanish with English subtitles.[4]
