        Castro's Beard



Castro's Beard

Synopsis:
On the eve of Fidel Castro's historic visit to the United Nations Assembly in 1960, a clandestine meeting takes place in Washington DC - a CIA think-tank whose sole aim is to take down the Castro regime. From the beginning, no idea is too far-fetched as tactics switch from destablising the Cuban government to outright assassination. Suggestions range from poisonous snakes in the mail, exploding underwater sea-shells, and poisoning Castro's socks to cause his beard to fall out, denuding him of his iconic symbol of power. And finally a plan involving Mafia hit-men and - of course - an exploding cigar! As Castro's visit looms ever closer, the stakes rise in this satirical tale of desperate government responses to foreign provocation - an issue resonant today as ever.
