Kymberli Frueh, SVP of Programming and Content Acquisitions for Trafalgar Releasing said, "Carlos Santana is among the elite musicians who has transcended decades and generations. From his performance at Woodstock to his 90's epic album Supernatural -this documentary delves into his journey of becoming one of our greatest guitar legends. We are thrilled to be a part of this global moment in cinemas where fans can experience his life story and music together."

With CARLOS, Valdez creates an intimate, rich documentary about a man whose sound casts a spell on fans who love -as one of Santana's famous titles says- "how his rhythm goes."
