Documenting Internationalism: The Instituto Cubano del Arte e Industria Cinematográficos as a Cultural Extension of Cuban Foreign Policy

Abstract

This thesis examines the connection between the Instituto Cubano del Arte e Industria Cinematográficos and the Cuban Revolution\u27s internationalism and argues that it made ICAIC documentarians, their methods of production, and their documentary films a valuable asset to Cuban foreign policy in the 1960s and 1970s
