Mission Against Terror is a critically acclaimed Irish-Cuban film that debuted at Havana's 26th Festival of New Latin American Cinema in December 2004. The film follows the case of five Cubans serving long sentences in U.S. jails for trying to prevent terrorist acts against the Cuban people. It also depicts the long history of violence against innocent Cubans by right-wing groups based in Miami and covertly supported by the U.S. government - violence that has claimed the lives of 3,500 Cubans and maimed 2,000 more.
Mission Against Terror raises the question: why are people who fight terrorism imprisoned in the U.S. while known terrorists are allowed to walk the streets of Miami freely?
