 This clever, self-reflexive satire about the battle of the sexes in contemporary Cuba tells the story of Oscar, an educated, liberal filmmaker who, in doing research for a film about the social problem of machismo in Cuban society, finds himself falling in love with the sexy, liberated Lina, a pioneering female dockworker. What starts out as a funny and tender love story gets more and more frantic as Oscar finds he can t choose between his wife and his new lover.
