Spaniard Carlos travels to Havana to help his brother complete their father's documentary on Afro-Cuban religion. But he soon finds himself ensconced in the city's dark underbelly as he encounters drugs, gambling and prostitution. Director Jorge Nebra defied Cuban authorities by making this gritty drama in spite of the government's censorship of the script and denial of permission to film in Havana.
