Fantasies, those states of mind that can be fleeting or eternal, are the central theme of the film. A man in his fifties, remarried to a younger and very beautiful woman, imagines for a long moment—the length of the film—a relationship between his wife and his 20-year-old son. Within the story—and the fantasy—there is a complex network of time periods that makes it impossible to separate reality from imagination.

Recently escaped from reformatory, Reinaldo struggles to get by in the streets of Havana in the late 90s, one of the worst decades for Cuban society. Hopes, disillusionment, rum, good humor and above all hunger, accompany him in his wanderings, until he meets Magda and Yunisleidy, survivors like himself. In one or the other's arms, he will try to escape the material and moral misery surrounding him, living love, passion, tenderness and uninhibited sex to the limit.
