Castro's people
A photographic road trip through Cuba
A new president of Cuba, Miguel D铆az-Canel, has been sworn in, and a new generation has taken political power. Alexandre Meneghini - a Brazilian photographer based in Havana - has been on a road trip to capture images of how the Cuban people live now.
Some aspects of life have changed little since the 1959 revolution. Most people have never known any leader except a Castro; agricultural work is carried out in traditional ways.
But 21st Century changes are making their presence felt in Cuba, as everywhere else - wi-fi, mobile phones, tourism.
