Los Últimos Judíos de Guantánamo (The Last Jews of Guantánamo) provides a glimpse of a tiny community at a unique moment for Jews in Cuba. In the city of Guantánamo, following the liberalization of Cuban policies against religion, two women in their 80s are finally to be bat mitzvah; to ritually proclaim their faith and community with other Jews. Members of their historically Jewish family have come out and traveled from abroad for the occasion.
