DESCRIPTION:A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition Film Series\n“Mission Against Terror”\n \nWith 
 an update and discussion of the case of the Cuban Five and a report back 
 from the Aug. 20 Oral Arguments in Atlanta.\n \nFive Cuban men risked their 
 lives to stop terrorism. But the F.B.I. arrested the “Cuban Five” on 
 September 12, 1998 and unleashed one of the biggest violations of justice 
 in our country.\n \n"Mission Against Terror" is a powerful and compelling 
 documentary about Cuba's struggle against terrorism.  It begins with an 
 account of 45 years of US-sponsored terrorism against Cuba, starting with 
 the chilling cockpit recording of the last words from the pilot of the 
 Cubana passenger plane that was bombed in 1976 killing all 73 people on 
 board. It describes the arrest of the five Cubans in 1998, with testimonies 
 from their families, and goes on to document their 'trial' in Florida which 
 Leonard Weinglass, the eminent U.S. civil rights lawyer calls a 'violation 
 from start to finish.'\n \nThe film goes on to give a moving account of 
 their draconian sentences and imprisonment, the denial of their rights in 
 U.S. prisons and the continuing suffering of their families who are denied 
 access to visit them. It includes interviews with groups and individuals 
 involved in the fight for justice for the Five, in the U.S. and Britain. 
 "Mission Against Terror" is an inspiring tribute to the Cuban Five's 
 determination to fight for Cuba's sovereignty and demonstrates why from the 
 legal point of view Cuba has every right to infiltrate the Miami-based 
 terrorist groups in order to defend itself. Cuba/Ireland, 48min. 2005\n\n\n
