Havana in 1958 is a place of pleasure for many but others are not happy under the rule of dictator Fulgenico Batista. As the revolutionary forces of Fidel Castro and Ernesto "Che" Guevara prepare to move on the city Fico Fellove (Garcia)-owner of the city's classiest music nightclub El Tropico-struggles to hold together his family and the love of a woman (In s Sastre). Observing all is The Writer (Bill Murray) an ex-patriot American who sees Fico being drawn into events as the revolution changes everything. Though Fico watches a culture vanish and a people transformed it is his love of Cuban music that keeps his memories alive.

As a Cuban-born (same age as Andy), I felt his message and enjoyed the music in the movie so much, I bought the soundtrack CD as well!
