Lester Hamlet

Based on the classic Cuban piece The Old House by writer Abelardo Estorino, the film tells the story of Esteban, who returns home after a 14-year absence when he learns of the imminent death of his father. Residing outside of his native Cuba he re-encounters a past that is almost intact. Secrets, old grudges, misunderstandings, and intolerance leave him to stay in a home where time seems to have stood still.

The story of a couple during the stay in the apartment of one of them. During that time, both their emotional states will constantly change due to a love that has consumed them, the promises that have not yet been fulfilled, and the time that has passed and will not return.

In Havana, where economic difficulties are numerous, two young people try to find out if love and aspirations can survive in a city defined by adversity.

Film formed by three stories: Flash by Pavel Giroud, in which a photographer sees strange apparitions in his photographs; Lila by Lester Hamlet, on the forbidden love between a young couple; and Luz roja by Esteban Insausti, about two characters who begin an affair after they met by chance in a traffic hold-up.
