 (Mountain of Light)\n\nThe Cuban documentary “Montaña de 
 Luz”—produced by ICAIC (Instituto Cubano del Arte e Industria 
 Cinematográficos)—follows Cuban doctors working in collaboration with 
 communities throughout Latin America and Africa.The doctors work for no pay 
 in areas of the world where there is either no medical care available or 
 where the few local doctors are unable to meet the enormous need, in the 
 case of the AIDS epidemic in Namibia and flood victims in Haiti.\n\nThe 
 Cuban doctors often work alongside medical interns returning to their home 
 country from Cuba after graduating from medical school. In Cuba, free 
 medical training is provided for any student—the only requirement being 
 that the student return to their home country and use their skills working 
 within the most opporessed communities. Beyond the material aid the Cubans 
 give, they also provide an important example that another world is 
 possible. A world where care replaces the drive for profit. The film 
 carries with it a deep message of internationalism, solidarity and 
 humanism. 2005, 53min, Spanish w/ English subtitles, Directed by Guillermo
