在这部冰冷古巴纪录片片中,冰冷古巴？自然是用鸡尾酒里的冰块冷却下来的﹗对于岛上的居民，确保物件冰鲜是生存的必要条件。来自中国的海尔冰箱正冰鲜整个古巴。在上世纪二十年代﹐中国青岛出现了一家冰箱工厂﹐海尔﹐原本一直做内销。在2006年﹐海尔出口了300,000台冰箱到古巴。在古巴政府的资助下﹐大部分的古巴家庭都有能力拥有冰箱。冰箱在古巴的家庭代代相传﹐人们对它呵护备致。冷战后古巴的孤立状况让人难过﹐以糖换油的日子已不复在。冰块原来就是文明。
Cuba on ice. Naturally it is served in cocktails at the beach bar. But for the islands residents, keeping things in a cold, solid state is a matter of survival and constitutes a daily struggle. Refrigerators are passed down from one generation to another, meticulously maintained and restored. They form the center of the household and confront their owners with the energy woes of a land that finds itself isolated at the end of the Cold War, no longer able to trade sugar for oil: Ice is civilization.
