Eventually, Sadiel's passion for the freedom of his people and his disappointment in communist Cuba leads him to a shift towards right-wing ideologies. Though this strains the men's relationship, Matthias tries to remain mindful of Sadiel's progressive ideals. Meanwhile, he films with graceful sensitivity the day to day of their evolving relationship as they go through personal transformations, acting as a mirror of the political turmoil of our time. This intimate portrait of the loving relationship between two human beings who remain congenial despite being at political odds is also a revelation of the fine line between left- and right-wing politics, what makes them so similar, and of how the binary of polarized politics and ideologies can permeate our everyday lives and relationships.
