Izolo bengibuka idokhumentari yethelevishini ekhuluma nge ukuthengisa ngomzimba eCaribbean, abesilisa nabesifazane. Lokhu kuyinto ehambisana nezokuvakasha zamazwe omhlaba ezitholwa amazwe amaningi akuleyo ndawo futhi kulowo nalowo kuye kwamukelwa izici ezithile. Isibonelo, kuthiwani ngokuthengisa ngomzimba ku Cuba?
El ukuvakasha ngocansi esiqhingini kwaqala lapho uhulumeni ethatha isinqumo sokukhuthaza imboni yezokuvakasha ekuqaleni kweminyaka yama-90. Ngaleso sikhathi, umnotho waseCuba wawusenkingeni engagunci ngoba iSoviet Union, izwe elalithumela izimali zokuzondla, lase liwile futhi sekufanele kutholakale indlela entsha yokushintshana ngemali yakwamanye amazwe. Okokuqala kwakukhona amaqembu amahhotela, ikakhulukazi iSpanish, bese kuba ukugeleza kwabavakashi baseMelika nabaseYurophu befuna amabhishi, ulwandle nobulili obuthile.
Ngeke ukwazi ukukhuluma ngokuthengisa ngomzimba ngaphandle kokugxila esimweni senhlalo nezomnotho saseCuba kanye nomlando wezwe eminyakeni engama-50 edlule. Lapho izinguquko zinqoba, into yokuqala eyenziwayo ukwenqabela umkhuba wokuthengisa ngomzimba kuso sonke isiqhingi, izindlu zabaqwayizi zavalwa futhi "izindawo zokubekezelelana" zakhanselwa. Lezi zinyathelo zisize abesifazane baseCuba ukuthi babambe enye indawo emphakathini, babasiza ukuthi bashiye amakhaya abo baye eyunivesithi futhi basebenze nabesilisa. Ngamafuphi nje, ukuqwayiza kwaqedwa eCuba njengoba nobugqila babuqedwa.
Ngakho kungani «izifebe»Ukubuya okudumile ngaphambi kokuphela kwekhulu lamashumi amabili, kuhulumeni ofanayo owayazi ukuthi angazivimbela kanjani ngaphambili? Yebo, lobo bufebe buqala ukuvela futhi eminyakeni eyishumi yama-80s, bumnene kakhulu, futhi bufakwa ngokuqinisekile futhi eminyakeni yama-90s lapho izinga lempilo liwela emikhawulweni engabekezeleleki. Namuhla babalelwa ku-5,6 million abesifazane eCuba kanti abayizigidi ezimbili baphakathi kweminyaka eyi-2 nengama-16 ubudala, kodwa azikho izibalo ezisemthethweni zokuthi bangaki ababandakanyeka kwi "jineterismo", njengoba besho lapha. Abanye balinga ukusho ukuthi baningi, abanye bathi bambalwa impela uma kuqhathaniswa namanye amazwe omhlaba wesithathu, kepha-ke, zikhona izifebe noma kunjalo.
Namuhla singabona abesifazane (jineteras) namadoda (i-pingueros) basebenze ngobuhlakani futhi ngokusho kwabanye, ngendlela elawulwa nguhulumeni. Imali iphathwa phakathi 35 no-80 dollars nabesifazane bangatholakala ku-intanethi, bacele emahhotela noma bayodansa edisco Umhubhe, indawo ekhethwayo lapho izivakashi zingathinta khona lokho ezikufunayo. Izinkinga zomnotho azisizi ukuqeda lo mkhakha omdala kunayo yonke emhlabeni futhi okubuhlungu wukuthi laba besifazane abalifihli ithemba lokuthi kukhona abazothandana nabo babakhiphe ezweni.
