A photographer has captured a series of striking images of Cuba's Wi-Fi 'Revolution'.
Photographer Valerio Berdini captured a series of images that show Cuban faces illuminated by mobile phone light, as many browse the internet on their mobile phone devices for the first time.
In June 2015 Cuban citizens gained access to Wi-Fi for the first time when Cuban government-owned telecommunication company, ETECSA, began installing 35 Wi-Fi hotspots in the parks of the main cities.
Until that date the web in Cuba was an affair limited to the guests of few luxury hotels and some official state offices.
