by Carlos Lechuga

synopsis

Cuba 1983. Santa, 30, is a peasant who works on a state farm. Andrés is a homosexual writer considered by the government to suffer from “ideological problems”. As usual with the opponents of the revolution, every time there is a political event in the area, someone is sent to keep an eye on them and prevent them from kicking up some kind of public opposition.
