Manuel 'Guajiro' Mirabal

In this fascinating Oscar-nominated documentary, American guitarist Ry Cooder brings together a group of legendary Cuban folk musicians (some in their 90s) to record a Grammy-winning CD in their native city of Havana. The result is a spectacular compilation of concert footage from the group's gigs in Amsterdam and New York City's famed Carnegie Hall, with director Wim Wenders capturing not only the music -- but also the musicians' life stories.

Amoramar is a sensory journey through the waters of my parents' past in which each wave that breaks on the shore carries with it fragments of their history, weaving together destinies and experiences into a unique fabric of love and connection. A hypnotic and overwhelming experience through the waters of the world's sea to where there is no sea.
