Synopsis

In the early 1970s, Cuban trumpeter Arturo Sandoval, portrayed by Andy García, faces a conflict between his personal musical aspirations and the ambitions of his wife, Marianela, played by Mía Maestro, who is deeply committed to the ideals of the Castro revolution. Also featuring Charles S. Dutton as Dizzy Gillespie and José Zúñiga as Paquito D'Rivera, this jazz biopic offers a detailed look at a musician's life while also serving as a pointed critique.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 21

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
