By a stroke of fate, far away from the Latin American continent, two strangers revive an extinct Cuban dance and give it a new life.

Documentary Bolero Cubano: A hidden treasure explores the history of bolero dance and music through personal stories, family reunions, and finds hidden treasures in living rooms and family albums. As Mirela seeks to understand why bolero dance has faded, she extends her invitation to the vibrant bolero music.
