February, 1978: Roberto and Aurelia are Cuban exiles living in New York City with their 17-year-old daughter. Roberto’s been the super of an apartment building for ten years, firing up the boiler, repairing windows, and moving bags of garbage. He’s homesick for Cuba, stuck in repetitive conversations about the Bay of Pigs, Castro, and life back home. But after receiving some tragic news, Robert makes up his mind to quit the city and move to Miami.

"A distinguished veteran of the stage, Raymundo Hidalgo-Gato is especially endearing as El Super, a quietly brave, bemused Everyman."
