The film also represents a bold Cuban reality of the 90 approach, the phenomenon of intolerance of difference and to the complexity of human relationships, achieving display of a very real way, the prejudices cover up injustices against everything that represented the sexual diversity in Cuba.
The article is divided into three stages that mark each time the moments that traverses the relationship between David and Diego (our protagonists) and how what to start out a game, a bet, becomes a relationship defended friendship, despite the risks and misunderstandings of a male chauvinist society.
