Events
Belly of the Beast's Gracie-Award winning Cuban presenter and journalist, Liz Oliva Fernández, will be on a national tour this Fall 2023!
Liz will be presenting our two newest documentary films: Uphill on the Hill and Hardliner on the Hudson. In Uphill on the Hill, Liz exposes the political interests driving the U.S. government's Cold War-era policy toward Cuba.
In Hardliner on the Hudson, Liz goes to Union City, New Jersey, where she looks into the murky past of Senator Bob Menendez and reveals how he became the de facto powerbroker for Biden's Cuba policy.
Liz will be visiting Washington, D.C., Baltimore, New York City, Western Massachusetts, Boston, New Orleans, Chicago, Milwaukee, Detroit, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, San Francisco/Bay Area, Portland, Seattle, New Mexico, Florida and Puerto Rico.
We look forward to connecting with you over the next month at the following events with Liz!
