EL SÚPER
(Leon Ichaso and Orlando Jiménez Leal, U.S., 1979, 90 min.)

“For the last 10 of his 42 years, Roberto, a former bus driver in Havana, has been living in New York exile with his wife, Aurelia, and their 17-year-old daughter, Aurelita. Roberto not only suffers the life of an outsider, he embraces it as well as the isolation, the humiliation and the homesickness that go with it. Because he refuses to learn English, the best he can do by way of employment is a job as superintendent in a large tenement on the Upper West Side.” —The New York Times
