Those Were the Days

Ernesto Yitux / Cuba, Ecuador / 2025 / World Premiere / 17 min.


synopsis

In 1987, a film school was founded next to a working-class town in western Cuba. For over three decades, hundreds of film students documented the lives of its people. Qué tiempos aquellos takes us to Pueblo Textil to explore what these memories mean today, what emotions they stir, and how they transform over time. A documentary about memory as both personal and collective experience.
