Documentário sobre a relação do cineasta Glauber Rocha com Cuba.
This film deals with a little-known period in the life of celebrated Brazilian filmmaker and political activist Glauber Rocha. Rocha's years of exile in Cuba (1971-72), coincided with a period of great cultural ferment and debate about the roles of the arts in the social and political revolutions of Latin America and the Third World. Using previously unseen video footage, the film shows Rocha all jerky and with florid rhetoric urging his Cuban comrades to embrace the new political and cultural challenges of the age; outlining his vision of a unified Third World; and expounding on the differences and peculiarities of Latin Americans and the means by which their revolutionary aims might be achieved. A document about a unique political and artistic moment, the film traces the links between the two most important Latin American filmmaking movements of the late '60s the Brazilian Cinema Nôvo and the Cuban Cine Revolucionario.

Documental sobre el exilio del realizador brasileño Glauber Rocha en Cuba durante 1971 y un diálogo entre el Cinema Novo de Brasil y el cine revolucionario cubano. Dos entrevistas grabadas en La Habana y la Estética del sueño, fueron puntos de partida de este filme que no es sobre Glauber, sino a través de Glauber. Rocha que voa es un documental que demuestra que el cine político, poético, revolucionario y de ficción de Glauber Rocha (como el de nuestro Raymundo Gleyzer) no es un cine que gusta. Es un cine que apasiona.
