Diego, a cultivated, apolitical, skeptical young artist living in Havana initiates a friendship with fiercely-communist homophobe David with the intention of seducing him. Knowing this,David allows the relationship to build so he can spy on a person he sees as aberrant and dangerous to the communist cause. Despite their conflicting sexualities and political ideologies the two slowly build a relationship out of their differences, proving that camaraderie and friendship can overcome the most divisive superficialities.
