About the Work

Clouds over Cuba is an interactive multimedia documentary commemorating the 50th anniversary of The Cuban Missile Crisis, beginning with the 1959 Cuban revolution and continuing on until the missiles were removed in October, 1962.

Along the way, the user is invited to explore 15 related topics in greater depth via expert interviews including Sheldon M. Stern, former historian at the JFK Presidential Library, and Sergei Khrushchev, son of Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev.

As the documentary unfolds, nearly 200 archival photos, videos, documents and audio recordings are automatically added to a digital dossier for further review at any time. Smartphone users can link their devices with the film so their mobile dossiers sync with the documentary playback.

Visitors who wanted to follow the crisis "live" exactly 50 years later could import all the secret ExComm meetings recorded by Kennedy into their Google calendars, enabling them to "attend" the meetings live over
