Overview

The great poet of equality, freedom, and the Turkish language, Nâzım Hikmet, receives an invitation from his Cuban poet friend Nicolas Guillen in 1961. Nâzım Hikmet, who was also the director of the World Peace Council at the time, travels to Cuba in May 1961 to witness the course and achievements of the 1959 Cuban Revolution firsthand. The film progresses with the testimonies of important Cuban intellectuals who met Nâzım during this trip, while also bringing the excitement and enthusiasm of the early years of the revolution to the screen with Nâzım's own voice reciting the lines of "The Havana Interview" from a previously unknown recording. It is the story of a sincere and comradely embrace between Cuba and the revolution's Nâzım, and Nâzım's profound influence on Cuban artists.
