A young couple, Claudia and Abraham, decide to start a family amidst the uncertainty of Cuba. Claudia is a prestigious film producer, while her husband has chosen the path of truth as an independent journalist. He is a founder of El Estornudo and collaborates with the so-called "enemy press."

Isla Familia follows Abraham during the last 3 years of his life, beginning with the arrival of the Covid pandemic in Cuba through his political exile in Spain. An intimate and epic journey into the experience of resilience and displacement through the eyes of a couple, filming their daily life with a cellphone and a big heart.
