Description:
Set in the early 1970s, the film follows Cuban trumpeter Arturo Sandoval (Andy Garcia) as he struggles to balance his personal musical ambitions with the political ideals championed by his wife, Marianela (Mía Maestro), a dedicated follower of the Castro revolution. Featuring Charles S. Dutton as Dizzy Gillespie and José Zúñiga as Paquito D'Rivera, this compelling jazz biopic offers both an intimate look at a musician's life and a sharp commentary on his surroundings.
