Follows several of Cuba's top drag racers as they struggle to prepare their classic American cars for the first official car race since the Cuban Revolution. It tells a personal, character-driven story that tackles how Cuba's recent reforms have affected the lives of these racers and their vibrant community.
About Movies :
The vintage American cars that rumble through the streets of Havana have long served as four-wheeled emblems of Cuba and its roots in the past. Bent-Jorgen Perlmutt’s serviceable but slightly drawn-out documentary “Havana Motor Club” shows that this grand automotive heritage feeds a racing culture, despite years of government limitations on competitions.
We’re introduced to Tito, Rey, Jote, Piti and Carlos, racers who share pride in their mighty machines. They muck about with the engines, engage in chest pounding, bemoan that they can’t race enough and sometimes even get to race. The one-on-one matchups are more exciting for the zeal of the drivers than for the occasional dashboard-camera views.
Rather than linger over the curves of cars, Mr. Perlmutt keys the pace of the film to the stop-and-go progress in reforming the rules against auto racing. The public contests were initially stopped by the country’s revolutionaries as elitist. When a competitive event is finally permitted to proceed, it’s scuttled because of a visit by Pope Francis. When another event does take place, it’s nearly derailed by unsuccessful crowd control, in what feels like a metaphor for the challenges of harnessing the popular will. (Carlos’s dependence on a Cuban-American parts supplier suggests its own conflicted parable about capitalist influence.)
