This is the story of Genaro Rafael Gonzalez Baltrón, 'El Cojo' (The Gimp), an agroecological Cuban peasant whose life course reflects the changes that took place in rural areas as a result of the Revolution, the Special Period and the (re)emergence of the agroecological peasant model of production. This story condenses and intertwines many of the elements that shaped the Cuban 'Peasant-to-Peasant Agroecological Movement' (MACAC) one of the most important and successful agroecological movements in the world. This life story is accompanied by a series of video documentaries that portray how agroecology is practiced and lived in the Escambray hills
