ABOUT THE FILM

Set in 18th-century Cuba, a clueless count wants to bring the light of religion into the lives of his slaves. And he can think of no better way to share the power of Christianity than to involve them in a staging of Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper.

Presented in partnership with the Minnesota Cuba Committee.
