Hello from PatchWorks Films!
Today is day 5 of our Kickstarter launch, and we can't thank you enough for your generosity in contributing to our (R)EVOLUTION CUBA project.
Your support has already helped us reach almost 8% on Kickstarter--a huge boost to our launch.
TODAY ONLY, a generous donor has offered a $500 matching gift. If we can raise $200 in donations by midnight tonight, those gifts will be doubled!
Deadline: Wednesday, Feb 03, 11:50pm EST - $500 MATCH!
We need your help spreading the word!
Crowdfunding is a way audiences can help create the films they want to see. You are an essential collaborator.

Rum. Jazz. Vintage Cars. We think we know Cuba. We hear about shortages, lack of opportunities, expected regime change, refugees and lucrative business deals. Lost is the remarkable debate where revolutionary ideals face off against the market's seduction. In Cuba, where 98% of the people are literate, have healthcare, a home, and free education, artists are not fringe. They are vanguard and they are in a quandry. Opportunity vs. free expression vs. socialism. How will they choose? Or can they have it all? (R)EVOLUTION CUBA brings you six short film stories of artists at the heart of an evolving nation.
