— SEEING FROM THE HEART —
Romeo and Juliet Cuban style, with the past and the present intertwined. Seeing from the Heart is more than a video clip, it is a call to listen to our own music, to relate to our own environment and to look at each other beyond our skin colour… more precisely, to look from the heart. This video was the first to be broadcast on Cuban national television during post-revolutionary times which addressed these issues. The video was left in Cuba, but these stills are available to show.

— MI SOLAR —
My Solar is a passionate homage to Mercedes Valdés, one of the most important investigators and masters of Cuban urban folklore, and in particular, of the Rumba in Cuba. But in addition, My Solar is a passionate cry, a protest against the forgetfulness and abandonment of the rumba tradition, and the symbols that represent it. The setting is an ancient solar (rooming house) called El Capitolio (The Capitol). This is the birthplace of Mercedes Valdés, today on the verge of collapse and without even a plaque to mark its historical importance. The plot is the daily life of the personalities – living or remembered – who naggingly wander the streets and rooming houses of Havana. The video was left in Cuba, but these stills are available to show.
