Watching Mi Aporte was very fulfilling for me. In the film, the issues of being a woman in the workforce during the revolution were being discussed by women who were in the midst of a changing Cuba. This film reminded me of the cinema verite film, Chronicle of a Summer, because both included real opinions and debates amongst communities and the reactions of people to the film. Growing up in a Mexican household, the scenes where the four women were debating about the hardships around integrating women as functioning members of society really resonated with me as I was raised around with the same oppressive values that were creating obstacles for these women. As my peer, Tea, highlights, this discussion happened 50 years ago, yet women today are still talking about the same topics; discussing women in male dominated fields is very much a topic of debate today. I think another reason why this scene stuck with me was because growing up Latina I never heard these things discussed among latino communities. As first generation Americans, my sister and I were the ones to spawn such controversial discussions with our parents. Seeing it discussed by these educated Cuban women decades ago was very empowering. I really appreciated the idea to have women react to the original debate because these was a slight generational gap between the two groups of women and as a viewer you get to see nearly all approaches to this issue and how it was affecting and being perceived by different groups of women from all ages and walks of life.
