With this vibrant debut—an ardent love letter to Santiago’s people and its colorful culture—Sara Gómez became Cuba’s first woman filmmaker. From siestas to fiestas, carnivals to funerals, this short salsa-danced its way into film history. A pulsating documentary of Afro-Cuban myth, magic, and music.
