BIRTHRIGHT follows Cuban-American electro-funk musicians Cristy "Cuci Amador" Garcia and Tony "Smurphio" Laurencio on their first trip to Cuba since President Barack Obama signed a treaty to renew normalized relations with Cuba's leadership. In desperate straits, 60 years prior, their parents left the island as political exiles. In 2016, the dynamic Miami-based duo, known as Afrobeta, was invited back to perform in Havana. Meeting old friends and new, these Gen Xers match tall tales to traditions and fables to reality as they visit their family's familiar haunts to explore who they are, where they come from, and what it means to feel Cuban.
