Arturo O’Farrill and his Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra travel to Veracruz, Mexico, to jam with masters of “son jarocho” a 300-year-old Mexican folk music with roots in African, Indigenous, and Spanish traditions.  In the poignant introduction, the lens zooms in the annual “Fandango Fronterizo,” a gathering that transcends borders and defies the geopolitical challenges of the U.S.-Mexico divide.   

Presented through the generous support of the Revada Foundation of the Logan Family.
