The artist group, San Isidro, whose members have been jailed and tortured by the Cuban government, represents one of the few significant resistance movements in the history of oppression in Cuba. Inspired by their courage, Cuban hip-hop musicians living in exile record a protest song, “Patria y vida” (“Homeland and Life”) a direct affront to the official patriotic slogan patria o muerte (homeland or death). Beatriz Luengo, a multi-Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter, documents the events surrounding the creation of the song and the unprecedented impact it had as it became a worldwide anthem. – Jaie Laplante
