In 1961, Turkish poet Nazim Hikmet was invited to Cuba, in the aftermath of the revolution that overthrew the Batista regime and brought Fidel Castro to power. The purpose of the trip is to write a reportage, but Hikmet's imagination and poetic sensitivity will give rise to something else, a poem where enthusiasm and expectation for life and the Cuban revolution reign supreme.
