The historically lucid intrigues of Maluala (1979), where the Afrocentric leadership of fugitive palenque communities is pitted against each other COINTELPRO-style by Spanish colonists, is one of those Cuban films that were forged in a righteous, red-hot ferment but still found the courage and wit to ask questions about the society around them. *Jende Ri Palenge * *(People of the Palenque)* *"We are here in Palenque only by accident, we should all be in the black continent in Angola!"* [image: Jende Ri Palenge (Trailer)]<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=0015Cb_ftSjxdwn8c8dJT03kN6E01r1mvpbV3u__aSLg3BTZ6-36BWgTOsbjYoofXXc_30WCmHPqq6IICRuhRUzPaJwRJPeHUQWZByCuBZMPFfs659Tc2hxRA==>Jende Ri Palenge (Trailer) Documentary about the music and culture of the people of Palenque, the location of the first free slave (or Maroon) community in the Americas.
