Description: The Cuban band Los Van Van is celebrated in this musically-charged documentary. Havana. December 4, the night of St. Barbara Shangó. One hundred thousand people vibrate along the coastal avenue next to the sea. Miami. A show at the Miami Arena turns violent as militant Anti-Castro Cuban Americans protest at the entrance. A standing ovation from the crowd of 4,000. Then the 2000 Grammy Awards ceremony and a performance that celebrates (the first) thirty years of a beloved band and their spectacular sound. A musical treat for fans of Cuban music.
