Marti – A Life in Exile Is a biographical documentary short film that highlights moments and aspects in the extraordinary life of the humanitarian, romantic, philosophical writer and Cuban Revolutionary poet Jose Marti. The innovative head of the Cuban revolutionary revolt against Spain in the last quarter of the 19th century. Plus the film illustrates some of Marti’s writings, essays and poetry as they advanced Spanish prose into the modern era and the coming of age of the new world (America) during the time of the industrial revolution where through his writings Marti acted as a bridge between North, Central and South America and not only introduced each other, country to country but neighbor to neighbor as well.
Overall the documentary tells the short life of Marti from his birth in Havana, the commencement of his nationalistic fervor in his pre-teen years, his travels throughout Europe and South America and the fifteen years that he lived in New York before his final and fateful return to Cuba.
