I should (but I won't) give this 10/10 for that one shot of the woman smoking the biggest cuban cigar I've ever seen. Props to that woman.

Regie Wim Wenders
A grounded, atmospheric documentary.
Der amerikanische Komponist Ry Cooder nahm 1996 in Havanna mit legendären kubanischen Musikern das Album Buena Vista Social Club auf. Auch Wim Wenders ließ sich von der weltweiten Euphorie um den Club anstecken und begleitete seinen Freund mit einem kleinen Filmteam nach Kuba. Entstanden ist ein einzigartiger Musikfilm, mit dem er den Soneros und ihrer Musik ein filmisches Denkmal gesetzt hat.
Buena Vista Social Club läuft derzeit in keinem Kino.

oh to be in cuba listening to buena vista social club while smoking a cigar
fucking lost my mind when the guitarist did one of the most incredible acoustic solos I’ve ever heard with the guitar behind his back! the most successful flex of all time, what a performer. there are few things I appreciate more than intense portraits of musicians and especially watching master filmmakers approach filming concerts, seeing the little details they pick up on as the cameras graze over the stage as beautiful music plays always invigorates me. getting to learn about a variety of talented Cuban musicians and culture on top of seeing Wenders’ low quality yet aesthetically compelling digital textures capture the sheer joy of musicianship made this an extremely relaxing and wonderful experience. I needed that right now. excited to listen to the album.
The film chronicles a collective of legendary Cuban musicians as they reunite to record an album and perform in international venues.
The film was directed by Wim Wenders, a filmmaker known for his work in both fiction and documentary cinema.
The film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature.
