La Première charge à la machette (titre original : La primera carga al machete) est un film cubain réalisé par Manuel Octavio Gómez et sorti en 1969.

Synopsis

Les débuts de la Première Guerre d'indépendance à Cuba : en octobre 1868, dans la province d'Oriente, l'avocat et propriétaire terrien Carlos Manuel de Cespedes organise la rébellion contre la domination espagnole. Les patriotes, retranchés à Bayamo, opposent une farouche résistance à deux colonnes de l'armée coloniale. Manquant d'armes et de munitions, les forces révolutionnaires compensent leur infériorité par l'utilisation des tactiques de guérilla.

Trois destins de femmes cubaines aux prénoms identiques, à trois périodes historiques distinctes, ou l'évolution de la condition féminine dans la plus grande île des Antilles. La première Lucía, issue d'une famille de la bourgeoisie coloniale, s'éprend d'un bel Espagnol, déjà marié dans son pays. En découvrant cette réalité, celle-ci en perd la raison. Nous sommes au moment de la guerre d'indépendance contre l'Espagne (1895). La deuxième Lucía (cette fois de classe moyenne) s'engage aux côtés d'un révolutionnaire dans le combat contre la dictature de Gerardo Machado (1932). Dernière partie du triptyque : durant les premières années de la Révolution cubaine, Lucía est cette fois-ci une ouvrière agricole souffrant du machisme de son conjoint dans une société socialiste défendant officiellement l'égalité des sexes.
