Suite Habana

A poetic homage to the city of Havana, this breathtaking film is a loving and melancholic portrait of Cuba's capital that spans 24 hours and follows the daily routines of 10 ordinary inhabitants. There's no dialogue and no need for it--music and the natural sounds of the city carry the film forward. Edited like a musical composition, Suite Habana oscillates between documentary and fiction about the city and its citizens. (80 mins., 35mm)
