Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights (film)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights is a 2004 musical and romance film directed by Guy Ferland. This film is a "re-imagining" of the 1987 blockbuster Dirty Dancing, reusing the same basic plot, but transplanting it from upstate New York to Cuba on the cusp of the revolution.

 
Plot summary

Shy, intelligent, eighteen-year-old Katey Miller moves from United States to Havana, Cuba with her parents in November 1958, just before the Revolution breaks out. Her parents expect her to move within their well-to-do circles, but she defies their wish when she falls in love with Javier Suarez, a waiter who also happens to be a talented club dancer. Secretly meeting in a Havana nightclub the pair practice their Salsa dance routine in preparation for a prestigious national dance competition.

However, Katey's parents are ex-professional dancers who trained her in ballroom dancing, whereas Javier has been trained in the titular Cuban style of dirty dancing, and the two must reconcile the differences between their styles if they are to win. Things become more heated when the coming revolution spells trouble for the pair's plans. When the Revolution breaks out, Katey and Javier go to a beach tent and make love. The day after, Katey finds out that she has to leave Cuba. On their last night in Havana together, Katey and Javier share a night full of dancing before they say goodbye but Katey also narrates that she and Javier know that it will not be their last night dancing together.
