Biography, necessarily woke-ish
Since it's biographical, the film isn't forced woke. But the character in question is very gay and a strong supporter of Castro, which makes the film portray communism and homosexuality in a positive light.
Lots of gay kissing and gay sex scenes. But think of the film like "MILK:" there is no biography without the gay, which is that by which the character has to define himself.
