It's late morning and Franca is sleeping. Maria interrupts her, wakes her up and covers her, in an attempt to get her out of her apathy. Maria is a little drunk and excited after a long night of partying. Franca, on the other hand, is sad and going through a crisis. The two friends talk between places, about the comfort and intimacy they share, about transference, time and how life goes.

Left on the doorstep of a monastery as an infant, Marcelino was raised by the monks. He was well-cared for but lonely and missed having a mother. One day he found a special friend in the forbidden attic, hanging on a cross. A friend that would repay Marcelino's kindness by granting him one heart-felt wish.

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.
