The series “tells” us the history of Troya, a very small town in the east of the island that was the geographic point of the beginning of the Cuban independence war against Spanish colonialism at the end of the nineteenth century. Today, it is a place abandoned by its people and by memory. This is a story of impermanence, which takes us back to the years when we all grew up inspired by the heroism of our patriots and the symbolic value of certain monuments and geographies.
