Synopsis
Oscar, scénariste, et Arturo, cinéaste, envisagent de réaliser ensemble un film de fiction sur la persistance du machisme à Cuba. Ils choisissent comme terrain de leurs observations le milieu des dockers du port de La Havane. Leur objectif est de mettre en relief le décalage entre la conscience politique et l'attitude réelle des hommes à l'égard des femmes. Au cours de son enquête, Oscar s'éprend d'une employée, Lina, jeune fille-mère, cultivant avec fierté son autonomie. Le ménage d'Oscar se trouve alors menacé. Un autre conflit apparaît entre Oscar et Arturo au sujet du film. Leur projet commun finit par échouer en raison de divergences de conception. De son côté, Lina, en femme libérée, dénonce l'attitude contradictoire d'Oscar, prisonnier de certains comportements qu'il croyait pouvoir critiquer chez les autres. Elle décide, en définitive, de retourner dans sa ville natale, Santiago de Cuba, où elle peut espérer une ascension professionnelle.Actors
