I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guess, I will give a hint that connects your guess with the movie I have in mind.

For each guess, a connection is posted. Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, actor, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve Cabbage Patch Kids. Also, you can use Metascore color or rating, Rotten Tomatoes score, any award wins or nominations in common, same number of words in the title, plot keywords. Note: "Plot" in the IMDB advanced search links to "Plot Summary" on the film's page. "Keyword" in the advanced search links to "Plot Keyword" on the film's page.

StoneKeeper wins with Amada (1985). Considered one of the classics of Cuban cinema but sadly little-known outside the country, it's about a woman named Amada who is caught between worlds in the early 20th century. Stuck in an unhappy arranged marriage with a corrupt bourgeois politician, she's become tired of the conservative social norms of Cuban society and falls in love with her cousin Marcial, a young socialist revolutionary who wants to change Cuba for the better. Amada is attracted to Marcial's optimism, progressive ideals and can-do attitude, as opposed to the resigned and cynical attitude of her husband and everyone else around her who believe nothing can be changed. The story is a microcosm of Cuban society in the early 20th century leading up to the 1959 revolution.
