After his family escape Cuba during the Bay of Pigs invasion, Sergio finds himself left wandering Havana. While drifting into memories of past romances and early life, his feelings of ambivalence and alienation, surrounding his country's political and social climate grows.

Now on UK Blu-ray for the first time, this cinematic masterpiece has been fully restored using the original camera and sound negative by Cineteca di Bologna with a vintage duplicate provided by the Instituto Cubano del Arte e Industria Cinematograficos. This international initiative to save the film from decay was funded by The George Lucas Family Foundation and the Martin Scorsese-chaired World Cinema Project, founded to provide a resource for those countries lacking archival and technical facilities.
