Sara Gómez - Biography
Sara Gómez (November 8, 1942 – June 2, 1974) was a Cuban filmmaker. Brought up in a middle-class black family in Havana, she studied literature, piano and Afro-Cuban ethnography. She worked as a journalist before joining the newly-formed ICAIC in 1961, where she subsequently served as assistant director to Jorge Fraga and Tomas Gutierrez Alea, as well as to the visiting French director Agnes Varda. One of only two black filmmakers at ICAIC at the time, and for several years its only woman director, Gomez made a series of documentary shorts on assigned topics before directing her first feature.
