How A Cuban Metal Band Defied A Dictatorship With Rock | Checkitow

Filmed in Cuba over the course of ten years, Los Últimos Frikis tells the story of iconic Cuban heavy metal band Zeus and their three-decade fight to be heard. When Zeus formed in the 1980s, rock music was illegal and rockers were derisively called los frikis—the freaks. Director Nicholas Brennan and Cinematographer/Producer Javier Labrador join Humberto on the Checkitow Podcast.
