"Slice of life look at Roberto and Aurelia, Cuban exiles living in New York City with their 17-year-old daughter Aurelita. It`s February, 1978; the winter is harsh, and for ten years Roberto`s been the super of an apartment building, firing up the boiler, repairing windows, moving bags of garbage. He`s homesick for Cuba, stuck in repetitive conversations about the Bay of Pigs, Castro, and life back home. He`s too depressed to make love to Aurelia, and when his daughter thinks she`s pregnant and he receives sad news from Cuba, he makes up his mind to quit the city for Miami. The decision gives him new life, he remembers Aurelia`s birthday, and they have a party to celebrate. " Director: "Leon Ichaso, Orlando Jiménez Leal". Actors: "Raimundo Hidalgo-Gato, Juan Granda, Reynaldo Medina, Zully Montero, Elizabeth Peña " . Color. Country: Cuba/USA. Subtitled.
