Among these musicians have already aged 90 years. Wim Wenders shows and broadcast their songs in live concerts and now they live recording. Some scenes are a small part of their concert in Amsterdam and the Carnegie's Hall of New York. At 105 minutes duration movie was Wim Wenders shows how kehiduan them in Cuba a socialist state more than the Humanist. Not shown in a scene where each personnel tell about their lives directly in front of the camera, but the art form of slow movement of the camera on the way when they go on tour. What is interesting is Wim Wenders makes all the scenes out of a real life dimension, for example when 2 people that group members were walking past the shops and saw a small statue of world-renowned figures. In addition, Wim Wenders did not hesitate to incorporate elements of contemporary art photography in the film showed the way from the beauty of the cities that they attended. Is worth if the film was nominated for an Oscar documentary category.

In The Million Dollar Hotel, Wim Wenders include three elements of art that becomes a very good combination of sweet. Elements of art music that nicely added element of literary art with the dialogue of each actor that is poetic and photographic elements in several scenes. In addition, Wim Wenders shows idealist again in this film in the form of scenes of some figures that came out of the existing dimensions of life. So with the view of both the film directly, it can be concluded Wim Wenders indeed deserve the awards that have been achieved and also the Grand Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival.
