Pedro Ruiz: Coming Home chronicles the dancer and choreographer's journey back to his native Cuba to become the first Cuban-American to choreograph a work with a Cuban dance company. The documentary witnesses the creation of Ruiz's extraordinary work, Horizonte (Horizons), and profiles the dancers of Danza Contemporanea de Cuba who bring it to life. It follows Ruiz from Havana back to his home town, Santa Clara, for emotional reunions with old friends and family. After an intimate portrait of creation and a new window into life in Cuba, the film follows the dance back to New York, where Danza Contemporanea performs at the Joyce Theater.

Reviews

ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
