Aunor is shown singing in front of an unattentive beeer house crowd. We can see her giving a spirited rendition of the song but we only see the eyes, or lips or hands of those around her, except for Crisanto Ricky Davao, to whom Nora is obviously addressing her song. In the next scene, we see her entering the city jail.

Dolphy plays Dondoy, a humble tricycle driver who was the ardent admirer of Annabel (Key). At first, Dondoy was often ridiculed by Annabel's sister Estelga (Delgado) and her mother (de Villa), who later became kind as the story progresses. The real Darna (Brenda Del Rio) in the Darna, Kuno? storyline became pregnant. Based on the story, Darna was impregnated by the Japanese anime robots Voltes V and Mazinger Z. Because of the pregnancy someone had to take Darna’s place temporarily as the superheroine until she had given birth. The original Darna lent her magical stone (the stone that transforms Narda, Darna's alter-ego, into Darna when swallowed and the name Darna is shouted aloud) to Dolphy's character Dondoy who will become the male Darna dressed up in the female Darna costume. Dolphy as Darna or more specifically the Darna Pretender or replacement had to fight tikbalangs, aswangs, and other enemies. Annabel became the other Darna Kuno in the story, as she stole the magical stone from Dolphy after finding out Darna Kuno’s secret identity. Both male and female Darna Pretenders fought and defeated alien invaders. The true Darna returned to retrieve her magical stone carrying her baby who was already wearing a Darna costume.

Tourné à partir de janvier 1963, Soy Cuba fut mal reçu à sa sortie en 1964 aussi bien en URSS qu'à Cuba. Il donna notamment lieu à une polémique à Cuba pour son ambiguïté dans la présentation de la société cubaine à la fin de l'ère Batista. Il fut par ailleurs interdit dans les cinémas américains durant la guerre froide. Il tomba donc dans l'oubli jusqu'à sa redécouverte grâce au romancier Guillermo Cabrera Infante, qui le fit projeter au Festival du film de Telluride en 1992. Projeté ensuite au Festival international du film de San Francisco en 1993, il soulève l'enthousiasme de Martin Scorsese et de Francis Ford Coppola, qui en parrainent la diffusion.
