Habana Blues

The closing film of Cannes 2005's Un Certain Regard, Habana Blues is the second film from the director of Solas. A lively musical journey through the streets and clubs of Havana that's a million miles (and years) away from Buena Vista Social Club, it follows two young musicians, Tito and Ruy, as they struggle to succeed – or even survive – through their music. The arrival of two Spanish music producers seeking talent stirs things up in the tight community of young musicians. But at what cost fame?
