Wikipedia article
'Luca' is a 1968 Cuban black-and-white drama film directed by Humberto Sols, and written by Sols, Julio Garca Espinosa and Nelson Rodrguez. It was the winner of the Golden Prize and the Prix FIPRESCI at the 6th Moscow International Film Festival in 1969.
The film is a period piece, told in three stories in different moments of Cuban history (the Cuban war of independence, the 1930s during the regime of Gerardo Machado and the 1960s), all as seen through the eyes of a different woman, each named Luca.
'Lucia' was digitally restored by the Cineteca di Bologna with funding from World Cinema Project and Turner Classic Movies and later screened at the Cannes Classics section of the 70th Cannes Film Festival in May 2017. The restoration also screened at the 55th New York Film Festival in the revivals section.
