Un poco mas de azul

Barber Quirino Sandoval reveals his experience in a changing country full of corruption, violence, divided opposition, and unfulfilled hopes in this bittersweet look at a Cuba during the fifties. Quirino moves up the ranks of society only to discover that his country's path seems to be the opposite of his, leaving him with no hope for a better future and no choice but to exile himself to Miami. Forty years later Quirino reflects with intense emotion on his achievements—his family, their love, and his victory of maintaining the dignity of his profession—and on the losses, of his culture to his children, and of a Cuba where the mangoes were sweet and the sky a bright blue.
 

Barbero Quirino Sandoval revela su experiencia en esta vista de Cuba durante los años cincuenta, los que son caracterizados por la corrupción, la violencia, una oposición dividida, y esperanzas truncadas. Mientras Quirino se entrega a un proceso de desarrollo personal, Cuba parece entrar en un proceso inverso. Al cabo de cuarenta años, desde su definitivo exilio en Miami, Quirino repasa emocionado sus logros-su familia, su amor, su victoria por mantenerse en la dignidad de su oficio de barbero. Pero también describe sus pérdidas-de su cultura cubana para sus niños, y de la Cuba donde eran sabrosos los mangos, y era azul el cielo.
