strawberry and chocolate -1993 - My fiancee thought you guys would like this. its a cuban film shot in Havana, with cuban directors. Its set in the 80s, a militant homophobic cuban communist incel gets dumped by his girlfriend and meets a flamboyant gay religious artist who hits on him. The communist assumes the gay man is a counterrevolutionary and spies on him. the two become close friends. the movie is very critical of cubas homophobia in the 80s and of the government, but its from a real cuban perspective. The film is super popular in cuba (not with the homophobes but everyone else likes it). its considered a classic cuban movie that people still watch and discus on the island. They thought you guys would like to see a queer cuban film that cubans like. period typical homophobia of course.
