Synopsis
Long before Ry Cooder learned about the Buena Vista Social Club, Jane Bunnett and Larry Cramer regularly visited Havana, fueling a cross-cultural musical interplay that harks back to the very origins of jazz. Bunnett and Cramer conduct workshops on the island and bring along technicians who repair broken instruments, all the while learning about the roots of Afro-Cuban music from its current practitioners and surviving masters. Filmmakers Bay Weyman and Luis O. Garcia document one of Bunnett and Cramer's visits, following them as they jam across the country with Tata Guines, Los Munequitos de Matanzas, Los Naranjos and Desandann.
