As pharmaceutical giants charge staggering prices for treatments that offer limited results with dangerous side effects, a potential breakthrough has emerged from Cuba, a country subjected to more than six decades of U.S. economic warfare.

Our latest documentary, Teresita’s Dream, tells the story of how a Cuban scientist, amid sanctions and scarcities, has developed an Alzheimer’s medication that could “change the world.”
