MI MAMBO! Series: LatinBeat [September 8 - 24 2006] Director: Pat Jaffe and Molly McBride, Country: USA, Release: 2006, Runtime: 56 On the sidewalks of East Harlem, kids bang out the complex rhythms of salsa on overturned cans. Down the block, neighbors merengue to the sounds from a pulsing boom box. And around the corner are some of the city’s most accomplished and diversely talented young musicians. Mi Mambo! steps inside the Harbor Conservatory for the Performing Arts in East Harlem to explore the power of Latin music in the lives of its students and teachers. As one student described it, “Latin music is heart and soul. Latin music comes from the street.” Mi Mambo! is where the school meets the street. Underscored by the syncopated rhythms of salsa, the film follows its young protagonists into their homes, and captures the personal struggles and family life in which these young adults struggle for a place on what is, for them, an uneven playing field.
