New
York Times
"Fernando Trueba's wonderful documentary tribute to Latin jazz, is even better
on a second viewing because the film is such a pure expression of the director's
love for the music, a love so infectious it should leave you elated."
The
Latin Jazz Network
"Superb performances by some of the best exponents of the genre, spiced
with history about the movement, humoristic comments and some magical, intimate
moments, contribute to openly engage the audience with the movie."
