El jibarito Rafael
Relates the life of one of Puerto Rico's most loved and revered composer and songwriter, Rafael Hernández.
Los expatriados
The film, which is an ode to Rafael Hernández's song "Lamento borincano", is a social commentary of the political and social policies of the 40's and 50's which led to the abandonment of what was seen by many as the "pure", "virtuous" life of the finca (farm) for the "corrupting" influence of urban centers like San Juan and New York City.
