Death of a Bureaucrat
La muerte de un burócrata
1966 · 1h 24m · Comedy · Cuba · Rated 11 (SE)
It is easier to kill a bureaucrat than to kill bureaucracy.
A model Cuban revolutionary tragically dies at work and, as a badge of honor, is buried with his labor card in his suit pocket. When his widow attempts to apply for his pension, the pension office demands the original labor card. Desperate, his nephew embarks on an increasingly chaotic and surreal quest through the Cuban bureaucratic system to secure permission to exhume the body, only to be met with endless forms, contradictory regulations, and apathetic officials.
