Cuba today. In times of incertitude, the life of four characters depend on a fragile illusion that resists from crashing. 8-year-old Marlon collects pictures and newspaper clippings of Fidel Castro glued to his room wall, but with every rainfall humidity infiltrates and damages his collage. 76-year-old Patria grew up in the Cuban aristocracy. She tries to sustain the rules of her belle époque, but now her mansion is a hostel for tourists attended by her family as servants. 19-year-old Yuri never leaves his room, from where he edits his whole life like a reggaeton videoclip. 29-year-old Nicolás is a foreign writer who lives in the streets of Havana without a visa or money to finish an interminable piece: a documentary that demonstrates that there are houses in Havana that move in order to resist the passing of time, houses in “miracle static”, which the government has declared in danger of collapse but have never fallen.
