Distro - The Cuban Girl 

Eve Arnold 

(From 2000)

Forty-four years ago, Magnum Photographer Eve Arnold met a nine year old girl called Juana on a beach in Cuba. The pair became so close that Juana's family wanted Arnold to adopt her and take her back to a better future in New York. Arnold had to refuse but she never forgot. Recently she returned to Cuba to find Juana, her children and grandchildren, whom she photographed in what became a very personal journey.
