    Disappointingly one sided propoganda
    The way this series protraits the revolution and the histroy of cuba will make you feel like its just another American propoganda. Except cuban historians, all other western historians are their to tell you about cuba and also, no one seems to care about the American intervention.

    You should ask yourself before you start to watch this series, why netflix is showing just the cuban revolution of all other revolutions and struggles in the world!!???
