This was a film that was listed in the book of 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die, and I will first confess that I dozed off in quite a lot of this Cuban film, but to be honest, I was fine as I didn't know what was going on at all. Basically, from what I gathered, Sergio Carmona Mendoyo (Sergio Corrieri) is a middle class but wealthy aspiring writer who has had his wife and friends flee from Cuba, but he is staying put, and as time goes by he sees the country change through the Revolution and the missile crisis. He sees the effects of living in a country full of underdevelopment, he has relationships with various women, including girlfriends Elena (Daisy Granados) and Hanna, and he has to stand alienation from social changes. Also starring Eslinda Núñez as Noemi, Omar Valdés as Pablo and René De La Cruz as Elena's brother. I think the reason I probably didn't understand the point of view story was because the editing was made to resemble a person's conceptual memories, fragmented and highly subjective. I will say that if that is the case with the editing, it certainly worked to this level, I can't personally agree with the four stars out of five that the critics give it, this is due to my confusion as to what was happening, and because I do not follow all political things and world events, unless of course I have heard of them, but anyway, from what I did pay attention to it was an okay political drama. Worth watching, in my opinion!
