Buena Vista Social Club
A group of elder forgotten Cuban music legends emerge from obscurity when an American producer reunites them in Havana, leading to spectacular performances that reignite their musical legacy. A group of legendary Cuban musicians, some as old as their nineties, were brought together by Ry Cooder to record a CD. In this film, we see and hear some of the songs being recorded in Havana. There is also footage from concerts in Amsterdam and New York City's Carnegie Hall. In addition, many of the individual musicians talk about their lives in Cuba and about how they got started in music. —George S. Davis
