7 Tage in Havanna ist eine faszinierende Momentaufnahme dieser pulsierenden kubanischen Stadt an 7 Tagen. Die 7 bekannten Regisseure Benicio del Toro, Pablo Trapero, Julio Medem, Elia Suleiman, Gaspar Noé, Juan Carlos Tabío und Laurent Cantet entführen den Zuschauer mit ihren lebendigen Geschichten in das Abenteuer Havanna. In 7 Tage in Havanna lebt der unnachahmliche Rhythmus dieser Stadt auf, die leise Melancholie, das Rauschen des nahen Meeres, die Musik und der Tanz, die stets durch die romantisch verfallenen Gassen schwingen und diese Sehnsuchtsmomente in 7 packenden Episoden vereinen.

After watching the film, I was reminded of a lecture by a well-known science popularizer who admitted that the motive for the creation of his latest book was not a passion for its subject, but a grant that he happened to receive and that it would not be wise to refuse. I had a similar feeling of "motivation" when it came to most of the participating directors here. It wasn't a dream project that pushed them to the limits of their creative powers, and it wasn't even a commercial thing for which they would risk their reputation with the producer. Most of them approached it like a school exercise, and sometimes I even felt like it was out of obligation. In any case, directorial qualities prevailed over screenwriting - sometimes there was palpable helplessness in that area (Kusturica's alcohol-soaked visit to the film festival). Most film fans will probably choose their own favorite story, but as a whole, 7 Days in Havana, in my opinion, doesn't hold up. It was clear from the beginning that the individual contributions would have different styles and poetics, but I must admit that I didn't expect to feel like I was on a roller coaster or riding a carnival ride when comparing the quality of the stories. Overall impression: 45%.

7 Tage in Havanna reichte aus, um mich über eine Parallele zur tschechischen Normalisierung zu amüsieren, oder: auf der Suche nach dem nicht Verfügbaren an Samstagen und Sonntagen malocht die ganze Straße an der Rekonstruktion eines Raumes für die Jungfrau Maria, sogar um den Preis, dass man die Nachbarin unter Wasser setzt. Ansonsten ist der Film wahrscheinlich nur als extreme Easter-Egg-Geschichte mit Kusturica, der sich selbst spielt, interessant. Oder als Medems Romanze mit Daniel Brühl. Die größte Verarsche ist natürlich Noé, aber bei ihm wundern wir uns über gar nichts und gehen einfach ohne länger zu verweilen zum nächsten Tag über.

It's starting quite promisingly and it almost looks like it will be an interesting glimpse into life in Cuba. However, the first story goes downhill with its punchline. The best part is Kusturica, who plays this time, and then the film is really about nothing, it doesn't really matter where it takes place. I can't consider this as a tribute to the Cuban capital.
