    • Synopsis
    • Being woman and being black in Cuba does not only make you invisible but it also constitutes an obstacle where all your dreams end up colliding and dying.
      We will accompany a group of artists that through their music, word or image have managed to pierce a hole in that impenetrable barrier. Though many are children of the 21st century, all have managed to blend the great vocal heritage of their black ancestors that arrived to the island as slaves with the present.
      Praise yourself pays homage to these courageous women, proud of their skin colour and their gender.
