Good video. Don't pay any attention to the negative comments, they are "common" and the "norm" nowadays. I sent it to a family from Santiago de Cuba, and they liked it. Enough said.
That certainly was not the intention. We really loved Cuba and it's people. It's just an irreverent style. We find small, inconsequential and unique things amusing - wherever we are, including at home. It is equally applied to ourselves. Personally, I don't characterize any ethnic/social/national group as inferior or superior or homogeneous to ourselves or others - including Americans. Anyway, on reflection, I could probably have made it clearer to the viewer that our attempts at jokes come out of fondness for the place and it's unique foibles - but I'm no professional filmmaker. Next time.

Clueless in Cuba. Patronizing. Condescending. And they say we Americans are patronizing, condescending and clueless.
