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]
