“Cuba My Soul is an exquisitely soulful film, reminiscent of the importance of Buena Vista Social Club for the preservation of Cuban music.”
Unveiling the Essence of Cuban Music and Culture
Cuba My Soul explores the heart and soul of Cuban music. Filmed over two eventful concerts in Havana, we invited many of Cuba’s finest musicians to share their passion on and off stage.
The result is a meaningful and emotive 61-minute journey with a stunning live soundtrack.
What is the soul of Cuban music?
And how will it be influenced by the outside world?
Craig Miller
the director
Born and bred in Melbourne Australia, Craig Miller was drawn to Cuba as a
percussionist and salsa dancer.
There he discovered an unparalleled intensity of passion for music and inspiring diversity – from Folkloric, to Son to Reggaeton that he felt must be shared.
Craig is dedicated to supporting the musicians and preserving their extraordinary message for generations to come.
“I am pleased to congratulate you again for your documentary "Cuba my Soul", for its approach to nature, for its personality, for contemplating music as a spiritual value rooted in human feelings and far from the conventional spectacles of bourgeois theater for mediocre audiences. . It has a truly cinematic treatment. For these reasons I proposed it for the Xavier Cugat Awards.”
