The Power of Community: How Cuba Survived Peak Oil
2006 · Film · documentary · 53 min
Directed by Faith Morgan
When the Soviet Union collapsed in 1990, Cuba's economy went into a tailspin. With imports of oil cut by more than half – and food by 80 percent – people were desperate. This film tells of the hardships and struggles as well as the community and creativity of the Cuban people during this difficult time.

It's surprising how almost know one knows about this, especially someone with an (albeit unfinished) environmental studies degree.
Not sure what you define as substantive but this is what I know about:
There's a documentary about the topic called, The Power of Community - How Cuba Survived Peak Oil. You can watch at the link below.
