March 2016: Havana is getting ready for the arrival of The Rolling Stones for an outdoor free concert, the first by a rock group since the fall of Batista. Rita is part of what is known as the “survivors”; those over forty who stayed behind while others left the island in search of a better life.
Her son wants to move in with his father in Holland, her mother insists that she is dying and, to make matters worse, she is going out with a married man. And then, as the concert is about to begin, she runs into a former boyfriend. Is this the beginning of something new for Rita?
The film will be preceded by an introductory message by Director Patricia Ramos.
Followed by DJs A Cut Above and más allá playing a selection of Cuban and Afro-Latin sounds and funky grooves at The Third Eye.
