Summary: Fantastic film of the Cuban diaspora in its initial stages. Yes, it was situations that the movie portrays, that were the nightmare of many Cubans. I think the films ending is about the dream that many Cubans had and have achieved.
The film does project a lifestyle that was commonly seen in other non Cuban latins. In reality, Cubans did not make their abode in Upper Manhattan for too long, and most achieved the American dream in a matter of years.
Hidalgo-Gato, we will miss you dearly.
