Since the 1990s, a wave of new immigrants from the former Soviet Union has hit Argentina's borders. They lose their identity and, to a certain extent, their pride as they are forced to adapt to an unfamiliar language and an unwelcoming society. Vladimir is one of those immigrants; unemployed, he feels cheated by the supposed opportunities of the "free world," but at least he finds solace in the arms of a prostitute. Nevertheless, he feels compelled to make something of his life, even if he has to take advantage of others.

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.
