Sin La Habana

Directed by Kaveh Nabatian

Desperate to leave Cuba, salsa teacher Leonardo and his girlfriend Sara come up with a plan: Leonardo will make one of his foreign students fall for him. Once he has moved in with her and his visa been granted, Sara will join him there. At first, their scheme seems to work: Leonardo seduces Nasim, an Iranian-Jewish woman living in Montreal. Getting to know Nasim, however, makes Leonardo look anew at his life. A stunning, colourful exploration of love, passion and commitment.
