Buena Vista Social Club (1998)
Country: GER
Technical: col 105m
Director: Wim Wenders
Cast: doc.
Synopsis:
Ry Cooder and his son Joachim record a band of forgotten Cuban musicians and take them to Amsterdam, and finally Carnegie Hall for one last concert together.
Review:
Slow to exert its power but a mesmerising portrait of the unspoken bond between musicians and their power to move audiences even at, in some cases, quite advanced ages. Sure to convert any with an ounce of rhythm in their bodies.
