Pourtant, les combats font déjà rage dans l’est du pays et bientôt la guerre civile frappera au coeur même de La Havane. Tandis qu’un monde s’éteint, un autre est en train de naître. Et la rencontre d’Elisa avec Paulo, un jeune révolutionnaire idéaliste, la précipitera au coeur du conflit. Entre loyauté familiale, passion et idéologie, son destin va basculer, ainsi que celui de tout un peuple.

Suddenly she’s riding around the city in a Ferrari, wearing borrowed designer clothes and going to the hottest clubs. The only problem ? Another guy, the one she can’t seem to keep her hands off of.

In a city like London, you never know where you stand, and everything can change in the blink of an eye.
