00:00How is the town of Guanabo?
00:02Guanabo was a bright town, with beaches, very beautiful.
00:06There were many places to visit at night.
00:09Now everything is turned off.
00:11Everything is MLC or MEPIM, very expensive.
00:14And you know, the survival.
00:17Guanabo is not what it was, isn't it?
00:20Well, now I think about what you are explaining to me.
00:26There is a word that they want to turn into politics.
00:31When it was Guanabo, there was a house next to Maria.
00:39That was the hotel where we, the poor, used to stay.
00:42There we were calm.
00:44Not even that exists anymore.
00:46The old Pigón is overthrown.
00:48All Havana is overthrown.
00:52I think that the Catrista dynasty, look where I'm talking to you.
00:58The Catrista dynasty gave school to Lenin.
01:02In the 60s, 70s, to the Cuban people.
01:08Today the school of Lenin is not even named.
01:11I think that the one who is president in Cuba,
01:18Díaz-Canel, has nothing to do with it.
01:21It's just a capatá.
01:23The dynasty is still of the Catros.
01:25Because the Catros are not going to give their fortune to Díaz-Canel.
01:30Many years ago, there was a game of dominoes in the Basques.
01:38From the Basques, where are the Cubans?
01:42Who took the diamond?
01:44Fidel Castro.
01:46Or the so-called Batista.
01:48Who left here with a lot of honor.
01:51Because he left his family.
01:54Billionaire.
01:55He bought an island of wood.
01:58Brother, what is your name?
02:01My name is Luis Alberto González Legón.
02:04I was stopped once for the cause of hate.
02:08Next to Mongo Castro, Fidel's brother.
02:12In the Picadura Valley.
02:14What an exemplary guy.
02:16This is why I finished a 12th grade.
02:18In the school of Facultad Obrera Campesina.
02:21In the town of Aguadales.
02:24And now he survives selling soaps.
02:28Those soaps are... How do you sell the soaps?
02:31Well, I sell them as much as I can.
02:33People want to pay me.
02:35Because what I do tell you is that
02:38Mongo Castro, Juanita, the deceased,
02:41who died in the United States in North America,
02:44is an example.
02:48There were two examples of Castro.
02:51And Castro's son died over there with my mother.
02:55He was always stopped in the United Nations.
02:5818th, between 1st and 3rd.
03:01Do you know the life of that family well?
03:04I don't know, because on the 3rd and 5th
03:07lived Celita Santamaria's daughter.
03:11Because Celita Santamaria was the one
03:14who baptized Celia Sánchez Martínez,
03:17the sister of the guerrilla.
03:20They died.
03:22Well, in Guanabos, on a Sunday,
03:24this is the most popular means of transport.
03:31It's the most popular.
03:33It's the most popular here,
03:35when people come to visit.
03:37There's a problem with the transport
03:39and the survival.
03:41150 pesos you gave me,
03:43I'm going to try to eat the soaps,
03:47because they're all expensive.
03:50Brother, are you selling the rooster to survive?
03:54No, he's not selling the rooster.
03:56He's consuming it and he likes the roosters.
03:59Father, have a good day here in Guanabos,
04:02a city that used to be...
04:05No, sir, I don't smoke, I don't smoke.
04:08And there's a problem with cigarettes,
04:10cigarettes are so expensive.
