Elvis returns to his neighborhood in Havana after serving a 10-year prison sentence for killing his abusive stepfather. His best friend, Martin, helps him navigate the struggle of reintegrating into society, but things become complicated when he crosses paths with his childhood sweetheart, Yuli, and her husband—a key figure in Havana’s criminal underworld. When the chance to leave Havana arises, he must decide whether to take a leap into an uncertain future or face the harsh realities of home.
