Ya no es antes

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.

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.

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.
