Story

  • The slogan of the film: “The family became a stranger, and strangers became a family.”

Juan Perez owned a sugar cane plantation in Cuba . When the communists nationalized all private property , he burned his plantation so that no one would get it. For this he received a prison term of 20 years. In the United States, he left a family - Carmel's wife and daughter Teresa.

Time passes - his prison term ends, and together with a group of refugees he returns to the USA. But the wife and daughter, on whom he counted as a family, unexpectedly turn out to be strangers to him - they will not recognize him, and Juan has to look for a new family.

During his return to America, Juan met a woman, Dottie Perez, who used to be a prostitute. Juan and Dotti have the same surname - Perez, and in order to stay in the United States, they have to portray a husband and wife, and the immigration authorities actually consider them to be a real family.
