SYNOPSIS A documentary about Federico García Lorca’s trip to Cuba in 1930. We discover his influence on the island's music, poetry, drama, and contemporary narrative scene, as no other poet in the world has been as acclaimed, read, and represented in Cuba as he has. In Cuba, he is a legend, and for this reason, the Cuban writer Martínez Carmenate points out that his presence on the island is a phenomenon of atmosphere and deep-rooted connection, but above all, Federico was immensely happy there.
