Summary |
When we first see David, he seems a rather naïve and straight-laced college student moping over the loss of his fiancée. But a chance conversation with Diego over differing tastes in ice cream develops into an unlikely friendship. Diego is an openly gay artist at a time in Cuba when that could get him thrown in jail. Despite their many differences, Diego mentors David, introducing him to poetry, literature, music and a new world of ideas. |
