La sagrada de cuba

Anyone slaughtering a cow in Cuba can face a prison sentence of up to 30 years. The absurd current situation has its roots in an outdated periodo especial law in the early 1990s. The film tells in small portraits of cow mafias and black market meat, bandits and the shepherds' love for their cows, carnivorous tourists and sleepless shepherds between resignation and hope. With a poetic and ironic look, he offers viewers an insight into a topic that most viewers have been unfamiliar with.
