Dear Fidel (2001)

Overview

In this documentary, Marita Lorenz recalls life on the periphery of history, from her stint as Fidel Castro’s mistress to her spying years with the CIA. Lorenz became Castro’s lover after the Cuban revolution and later joined a plot to kill him. Though she couldn’t carry out her mission, Lorenz remained a player on the Cold War espionage stage and claims she was connected to presidential assassin Lee Harvey Oswald.
