Centered on the remarkable letters by Jose Lezama Lima to his sister living in exile in the United States, this feature-length documentary Letters to Eloisa tells the story of the Cuban writer’s life and work; weaving together the public and the private, the literary and the political, ultimately to focus on how the writer’s voice, at first amplified by the revolution’s cultural policies, was ultimately silenced by the absence of creative freedom in Cuba during its most tumultuous decades.
