Who is Love & Suicide the movie?

DVD Available now at www.MoroFilms.com

100% owned and distributed by the filmmakers. The filmmakers that went to Cuba and shot this film there. Showing Cuba in the raw, this is not a Hollywood version, commercialized, product endorced film. This film speaks to the subject of life and death, forgiveness and facing fears.

This film has a backdrop of the actual streets that Cuban's walk every day. Of homes they eat at, the ration books, the poverty, and the unimaginable human spirit of dignity and love that humbles even the hardest critics.

This is not a political film, however we were hard pressed to keep the thousands of audiance viewers around the country from asking, 'what can we do'? There is an obligation as an artist, a filmmaker, a communicator to bring information on how we can end the suffering.

Luis Moro, the film's actor, writer, and producer was born in Cuba. In a poor dirt street town called San Antonio de los Banos (San Anthony of the bathrooms). He jokingly says, "I was born in the crapper, I can only go up from here". He and a team of 10 people went to Cuba on an invitation from the Havana Film Festival which was screening his and Lisa France (director) first award-winning movie Anne B. Real (black latin rapper). This was the perfect time to bring a cinamatagrapher, Damien Lichtenstien, and Jessie Guma, Belinda Marmont, Bobbi Miller-Moro (Luis Moro's wife), Daisy Mc Crackin (who plays Nina), Kamar de los Reyes (who plays the lead Tomas) from One Life To Live, and Sheri Saum (his fiance), and Alberto Gonzales.

The rest is history. Unknowingly this American team of indie filmmakers made history. After submitting the film to The American Black Film Festival, the Miami Herald requested an interview, and that is when to the surprise of Luis Moro he was informed that the team made history 'becoming the first American filmmakers to break the embargo in Cuba and shoot a feature length film there.' After hundreds of interviews by magazines, authors, television shows, tabloids, newspapers, festivals, websites; Love & Suicide has been growing into a must see film.

Playing directly after Lost City, a film by Andy Garcia 7 years in the making, Love & Suicide played a record breaking 13 weeks at the AMC Cocowalk Miami. Audience members came out crying and ready to do something, anything to help the Cuban people.

Well, that was Miami. Luis Moro called theatres one at a time, and convinced them to play this 90 minute feature, thankfully AMC Select took them on. They packed theatre after theatre, including a very Caucasion audience in Palm Springs. They packed a one time only screening at 10 am on a Saturday morning, over 300 people who stayed and asked questions for 30 minutes after the film.

This blog will be a work in progress, the story behind it, how a filmmaker with five children has stood up to the Hollywood blockbusters and let his voice be heard. The people who supported him are too numerous to mention now, but will be added shortly. A special thanks to Jokes and Bruno Briel for editing our little masterpeice, Pete Maez who co-produced and made it all happen; and that's putting it mildly, Jerry Katell, and more including family and friends. Thanks to everyone who actually enjoy getting our weekly newsletters by email. Thanks to everyone who also for all the financial help and support in helping Luis and Bobbi continue to move forward with this project. They have put everything they own into their films and they will not stop until there dreams are fulfilled. Thank you for being a part of indie filmmaking, and supporting the indie spirit.
