Winner of over 14 film awards and distinctions, including the CINE Golden Eagle Award and the TELLY Gold Award, Cuba Mia captures the music of Cuba as you have never seen before. This is a story of the amazingly talented and spirited musicians of Camerata Romeu, an all women orchestra, filled with dazzling faces and fiery performances that will astonish and delight you. Led by Zenaida Romeu, one of the world's most gifted conductors, their music infuses everything from Cuban folk to Mozart, drawing on the popular rhythms of the island taken from Africa, Spain and Latin America.
Funny, angry, lyrical and moving, Cuba Mia takes you behind the scenes as ten dedicated musicians juggle a fierce rehearsal schedule, boyfriends, girlfriends, grandparents and children, offering a slice of Cuban life seldom seen on the world's screen. Their young lives filled with dreams and sacrifices, victories and defeats, numbing work and moments of genius. Cuba Mia offers an unforgettable message of hope, an inspiring film matching stirring music with memorable images-a celebration of talent, daring, imagination and dedication. DVD Bonus Features include a complete Spanish language version, Five Bonus songs from the CD, Bonus Concert Performance and Cafe L.A. Radio Interview and Performances.
