Yara Masiel, Armando Miguel Gómez
August 1994, and we had a multiple homicide in a small town in Cuba: two men and a woman. Azucar’s fathers. The young girl is the only witness. To prove her innocence, Azucar begins telling the life of her parents, the story of a love triangle that started 50 years ago, when Elena, Tomas and Emilio were just kids. In the town, everyone believes that Azucar is the murderer.

Amor vertical

Jorge Perugorría, Silvia Águila
The architecture student Estela (Silvia Aguila) makes a suicide attempt after her plans for solving Havana's housing shortage are rejected. This brings her into contact with earthy, cynical hospital nurse Ernesto (Jorge Perugorria). Estela invites him home for dinner, and he succeeds in offending everyone present. Unable to find a quiet spot to be alone, they finally find a squatters' tenement, where their sexual frenzy causes a ceiling to collapse. They next try vertical love in a stalled elevator, trapping people in the modern building minus stairs. Fleeing responsibilities, they stage a romantic rendezvous alongside a country river, but once again they are interrupted as Cuban commissars arrive with papers and forms because the couple constructs a hut beneath a bridge. Amid the misadventures, lust turns to love
Vertical Love
Pon tu pensamiento en mí

Seven Scribes tell the story of an actor who represents tricks and false miracles. The people believe that it is the new Christ. The actor denies being Jesus, but the masses need to believe. The Scribes manipulate the faith of the mass in this fable of loves, negations and intrigues.
