The Cruz family is preparing a seven-course dinner for their eldest son who is returning from Cuba. The city trembles in the summer heat and so are the tensions and hidden frustrations of the family.
Description:
Miami, 1967. Rafael and Ana Cruz haven’t seen their eldest son, Eduardo since the beginning of the Cuban Revolution. With the news of his booking on the last Freedom Flight of the month, they have planned an extravagant dinner to welcome him home. All of his immediate family will be there – his parents, his aunt, his younger siblings. Everyone. All in one dining room, for seven courses, the fans lazily turning in the oppressive humidity of the Florida night. Close. Too close. Hope they don’t find out, mijo.
