Movies and TvShows featuring "afro-cuban" theme.

Yuli is a biographical drama that tells the story of Carlos Acosta, a dancer from Cuba who becomes one of the best ballet dancers in the world. The movie explores his relationship with his father, his journey from a troubled childhood to international fame, and the challenges he faces along the way.

When you think of Latin percussion, think of Francisco Aguabella. Perhaps the finest Afro-Cuban master percussionist still living, he has become synonymous with his instrument — one of the highest compliments a musician can receive. Indeed, what Carlos Santana is to the guitar, Aguabella is to the conga drum.

A rare close-up of the Abakuá —an Afro-Cuban religious brotherhood that has been hidden from outsiders until recently. A symbol of resistance for over 200 years, the Abakuá society has managed to survive slavery, the Spanish domination and the Revolution, spite of all the bias and misunderstandings about their traditions and rituals.
