Stock - Description of Cuban Economy

Boris our Cuban tour guide.
While visiting Cuba Havana, our tour guide gave us a quick overview of how the semi-private-sector tourist economy functions, and the effect of the convertible peso on the Cuban economy.

On its own, its not terribly compelling... this isn't edited down as I don't have enough material to make a documentary about the Cuban semi-private sector (which I find very interesting). But if anyone is trying to put together a documentary about Cuba, this raw footage might be useful to you. Available under Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 license. Original footage is 883 MB MPEG-2, or grab one of the MPEG-4 derivatives found on Internet Archive.
