It is summer and on the island of Cuba began the great carnival that celebrates fifty years in the power of Fifo, old and mad dictator. With agility and sarcasm, the Cuban writer Reinaldo
Arenas describes the outrageous actions that are planned in honor of the tyrant, and also presents a youth who refuses to accept that the island has become a prison. The abuses and struggles of
those who cuddle up to power, repression, the tricks to survive in misery, everything explodes during the big party, and occur less inhibited desire, resentment, intrigue and fear.
