Caridad (Yuliet Cruz) is a Cuban playwright in exile in Valencia, Spain. She is committed to writing a play about the Cuban exodus from the island. To this end, she intends to engage in dialogue with women and men who recount their migratory experiences, during which they risked their lives. The film powerfully expresses her profound perspective on uprootedness, nostalgia, and loss.
