synopsis

Seven pounds of rice, five pounds sugar, four ounces coffee, five eggs, 10 ounces beans, a small bread roll... Juan starts the month with 250 pesos. But once he's paid for these food rations, transit, utilities, and the new energy-efficient fridge he was obliged to buy, what's left? This independent Cuban film examines the way that the economy and daily life works (and doesn't work) in Cuba today.
