The National Film Board is many things, including timely. In the gloomiest month, the NFB is heading to Cuba, where Canada is currently participating as a guest of honour at the Havana International Book Fair. Last week it was announced that the NFB had signed a deal with Cuban state television to broadcast Spanish versions of nine of its documentaries, animated shorts and one drama, Claude Jutra's Mon oncle Antoine from 1971. Not included in the deal are the NFB docs Song for Cuba and Waiting for Fidel.
