A young American boy is trying to break into the acting business, and goes to Cuba during a film festival.
I will keep this review short and spoiler-free.
"7 Days In Havana" is a compilation of seven short stories, each with it's own director and character(s). The first two "days" seemed to be taking the film in the right direction, but after that everything fell apart.
Some elements try to bridge together some of the "days", but the whole structure of the storytelling ends up being an inconsistent mess.
I thought that all the cliché representations of Cuba would be lacking, but "7 days in Havana" gives almost nothing new.
A wasted Saturday night for a movie I would not re-watch.
