Roberto, a puppeteer from Havana, has a dream. He hopes that a festival
manager, whom he met years before, invites him and his puppets to Oslo.
His dream turns into an obsession and his family starts doubting his
mental state. They don't know that Roberto owns another set of puppets
in an old ruinous shed in a backyard. He once prepared these puppets
with the hair and blood of his deceased wife Olga to lend the puppet a
stronger artistic expression.
