Life Is to Whistle
(La vida es silbar)

by Fernando PÉREZ

In the sixties, Julita, Bébé and Elpidio lived in an orphanage. Bébé was abandoned by Mariana, his mother. We are now in Havana today. Mariana is seeing a psychiatrist, Julita is a dancer and Elpidio works as a fisherman. None of them is happy. Each of them struggles between love, hate, promises, truth and préjudices. Only Bébé could reveal to them the secret of happiness. Will they know how to choose and find it ?
