The Mamboniks

USA 2018 | 87 minutes | English, Spanish | Hebrew subtitles

The Mamboniks tells the little-known story of the Jewish love affair with Latin music. During the 1950s, free-spirited, mostly Jewish dancers from New York City fell head over heels for the mambo. Set in Havana, Miami Beach, New York, and the Catskill Mountains, The Mamboniks features a now retired, yet still dancing group, of aficionados who share their passion for Latin music and dance. With an infectious soundtrack including Tito Puente and Celia Cruz.
