Reinaldo, an adolescent who has recently escaped from a reformatory, takes to the streets of Havana during the tough years of the 90s, the special period in Cuba. A rogue with few scruples who has to tackle the daily task of living. Desires, disillusionment, rum and good humor accompany him as he wanders the neighborhood of Havana Center. One day he meets Magda, another survivor like him, and an impossible, tragic love story develops between them, marked by sex and tenderness.
