IN THIS WORLD - 15 min

THE RAIN WILL FOLLOW - 15 min

SOY CUBANA - 17 min
This short documentary follows a unique and until now little known female Cuban a cappella quartet, the Vocal Vidas.

We follow these four women, exploring their daily lives, artistic process and gain a unique window into a contemporary career and relationship with music in a communist society.
