A Cuban Love Story
A filmed memoir of a love affair returns to the tensions between masculinity, militarism and homoerotic desire in Cuba.
Photography / Kobi Israel
CUBA, Love Story!
1993–2012
An encounter with Cuba becomes a reflection on masculinity, military culture and homoerotic desire—and on the photographer’s memories of Israel.
Inside the work.
The artist’s account connects what he encountered in Cuba with the social world of his own upbringing. This is a situated autobiographical perspective, rather than a claim to speak for all Cuban experience.
