Buena Vista Social Club

Throwing a spotlight on the rarely-appreciated art of Cuban music, arthouse director Wim Wenders explores the titular ensemble of aging bolero musicians previously thought past their prime. Spearheaded by guitarist Ry Cooder, these charismatic personalities revived their country’s musical legacy with a best-selling album in 1997; fresh off of that success, Wenders reverentially documents them recording a follow-up in Havana while performing joyous concerts in Amsterdam and New York City, specifically Carnegie Hall.
