MARTA AND LUIS
by Yoav Shamir
synopsis
To the sound of Luis' own music score, this film takes you on a journey of remembrance of the lives of Marta and Luis Valdez, two of Cuba's forgotten musicians, once part of Luis' famous band Luis Valdez y su conjunto, hugely popular in Cuba and well-known abroad. We meet them as they are now, in their run-down house in Central Havana which became for them a refuge from the changing realty forced upon them by the revolution.
