Synopsis

La historia de cómo Cuba luchó tras el colapso de la Unión Soviética, su principal apoyo económico y político. La caída masiva de los niveles de vida desencadenó crisis de refugiados, que causaron estragos en las ya difíciles relaciones de Cuba con Estados Unidos y obligaron a los dos enemigos a negociar por primera vez uno a uno y oficialmente.
