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.

What an absolutely brilliant film: the music, the vibe of the culture of Cuba, I still listen to the soundtrack on the regular.
Highly recommended!
