In the screening of documentary there was Magalys Llort, the mother of Fernando González, one of the five Cuban anti-terrorist fighters imprisoned in the United States.

Llort, in the introduction to the presentation of the piece, pointed out that these young Cubans are still in US prisons, even though it has been proven that they haven’t committed the supposed crimes that have been attributed to them.

She also highlighted that in the cases of Gerardo Hernández and René González, they have been deprived during these ten long years that they have been imprisoned of being visited by their wives.

A deputy to the National Assembly of her country, Llort assured that this is a violation of human rights by the nation that proclaims the fulfillment of that practice the most.
