When the Spirits Dance Mambo (2002) - explores the influence of African religion and sacred thought on Cuban society culture and music. In particular, it follows the journey of Yoruba beliefs and Le Regla de Ocha (known as Santeria) from 15th century Africa to the New World. Shot in Cuba, the film includes interviews from priests and priestesses, who all share a strong conviction in explaining the power and beauty of African based spirituality.

Robert Shepard, the producer/director of photography, will join us for a Q&A discussion after the film.
