“Throbbing with music, seething with anger and romance, THE LOST CITY is a film that breaks your heart, bewilders, alienates and ravishes you by turns.” – Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune
Havana in 1958 is a place of pleasure for many, but others are not happy under the rule of dictator Fulgencio Batista. The revolutionary forces of Fidel Castro and Ernesto “Che” Guevara prepare to move on the city. Fico Fellove (Garcia) is the owner of the city’s classiest music nightclub, El Tropico. Struggling to hold together his family and the love of a woman (Inés Sastre), he does not know that his club will become more than just a stage for popular entertainment.
Observing all is The Writer (Bill Murray), an expatriate American who sees Fico being drawn into events as the revolution changes everything. Though Fico watches a culture vanish and a people transformed, it is his love of Cuban music that keeps his memories alive.
