Sumario:This article is centered around the investi-gation of Jocuma, o el cabo de San Antonio, a Cuban documentary film by José Antonio Sarol (1955), which evokes the life of some extremely poor families of the Westernmost side of the Island. After coming to terms with this one-reeler as well as with its context of production, the article analyzes the critical discourse that it encloses. But I also aim at comparing the film’s ethi-cal, political and aesthetical posture with that of El mégano (Julio García Espinosa, 1955), a feature that is usually presented, in a rather disputable fashion, as the only politically committed work of the Cuban pre-revolutionary cinema.
