This was a short history of Communist Cuba, seen through the eyes of a teenage girl who grew up in a family that didn't support the regime. They spent 20 years trying to get out of the country and finally did, on the Mariel boatlift.

It was a great inside view of a closed society. Both fascinating and horrifying...I loved it.
