To this day, Havana remains that rare city where music-lovers can still wander into a small club and, for a nominal fee, witness some of the world’s most vibrant sounds being generated by some of its greatest talents. Perhaps the most illustrious of all Havana’s clubs is Gato Tuerto, now in its sixth decade of existence. Its stage is small but has hosted giants, among them Omara Portuondo, Pablo Milanés and Chucho Valdés, while around its tables have sat the likes of Gabriel García Márquez and Julio Cortázar.
Dacio Malta’s documentary chronicles the long, fascinating story of Gato Tuerto in all its bohemian glamor and creative bliss.
