Magalis, Ignacio, Vivian, Miguelito and Santo: the leading characters of BARRIO CUBA are all human beings striving for a little happiness in La Habana. They live life to its fullest, propelling themselves over and over against an uncertain fate, searching for a way out. The harsh reality of the barrio contests them, but they never lose the hope of a better future, of regaining a lost love, or finding a new one, of improving themselves. BARRIO CUBA is the story of fighters whose lives are woven by a mosaic of emotions, at times bitterly confused, but always honest. BARRIO CUBA is also the portrait of a country and a moment where preserving dignity becomes a hard task, but they keep on trying.
