This documentary focuses on two talented Afro-Cuban brothers, namely violinist Ilmar Gavilan and pianist Aldo Lopez-Gavilan, and how a protracted geopolitical embargo has long prevented them from playing music together. As a child prodigy, Ilmar left to study the violin in Russia at age 14, then settled in New York and built a successful career. Aldo grew into his own as a prominent jazz and classical pianist in Cuba. But the changing political climate soon revises their situation.
