Synopsis
Sierra Maestra, Cuba, 850 km east of Havana. The day before the celebration of the 52nd anniversary of the Revolution. An old man is repair a motorcycle a few decades old. A young dentist is trying to find some transport to a clinic in a remote mountain, where among other patients - he is to treat a patient called Vladimir Ilich Rodriguez. A middle-aged married couple has a public telephone booth in their modest house for villagers who have no phone. The fate of these people and many other inhabitants of Sierra Maestra, are depicted on a day of ideological ecstasy, the day of the celebration of the 52nd anniversary of the Revolution ... And the following day? The next day, driven by inertia, they all return to the rhythm of everyday life which is the same and is not very promising. Everyone is aware of that. Even the bullhorns that constantly blasts out ideological slogans that are 52 years old... But the revolution continues... For how long? Con Fidel, pase lo que pase. "With Fidel, come what may".
