Synopsis:Music in the veins“; Cuba, especially Havana, is a boiling caldera of musical and rhythmical creativity. Music is omnipresent. The manifold of Cuban music is unique, worldwide. It is a melting pot of very different influences coming along from own history, tradition and a very fast synthesis of daily updated influences. The film features Cuban musicians telling about their music, their view and thoughts. It will give a subjective first-hand view without any doctrinaire indexing. Starting with the CLAVE the film advances to RUMBA, to ORICHAS, to EDUCATION via famous Cuban musicians, musicologists, as well as ‘regular people’ in love with the Clave.
