Mauvaise Conduite or Improper Conduct is the title of a 1984 documentary film directed by Néstor Almendros and Orlando Jiménez Leal. The documentary interviews Cuban refugees to explore the Cuban government's imprisonment of homosexuals, political dissidents, and Jehovah's Witnesses into concentration camps under its policy of Military Units to Aid Protection. The documentary was produced with the support of French television Antenne 2 and won the Best Documentary Audience Award at the 1984 San Francisco International Lesbian & Gay Film Festival.

Las Krudas:
Three lesbian rappers who are equal parts Missy Elliot,
Biggie Smalls and Lil Kim. Tough, hard-core feministas who attack Cuban
machismo on practically every song. They're street dancers in Havana's
tourist traps by day and renegade hip-hop artists by night, giving voice to
maids, tired mothers, and abused wives.
