This documentary tells the story of the bachata, Dominican Republic’s blues. It centers on the figure of singer, guitarrist, and songwriter Luis Vargas. It is also a tribute to the unknown heroes that transformed the bachata from a rejected music of the cabaret and whorehouses to a national pride and Dominican youth’s prefered urban music.
