Two Faces Meet in a Red-and-White Profile Portrait
Imagery
The poster is built around two large faces in profile, turned toward one another. Their features merge into a stark red-and-white image. A green star sits below them, alongside text about a man falling in love with Havana and a woman.
Composition
The oversized faces dominate the centre and right side, while red blocks on the left hold the festival laurels and tagline. The green star acts as a visual pause before the cast names and large title at the bottom.
Colour
The design uses a bold palette of red, white, yellow and dark green. The high contrast and dotted print texture give the image a striking, screen-printed quality.
Title and Typography
Guaguasí appears in very large white capitals with a dark outline, making it the poster’s strongest text element. The actors’ names sit just above it, while the director credit appears below. A green banner across the top carries review quotations in condensed white lettering.
Symbolism and Tone
The facing profiles suggest intimacy and attraction, while the star and the tagline connect the story to Havana. The sharp colours and fragmented image create a restless, dramatic mood, which is reinforced by the reviews’ description of the film as haunting and disturbing.
