Fabián, Apuntes 1969

Cuba in the 1960. The revolution has triumphed and Fabián, a young pianist obsessed with his work goes through great contrasts of shadows and despair. 'Apuntes 1969' is inspired by the novel 'Fabián and Chaos', by Cuban author Pedro Juan Gutiérrez. It portrays layers of the main character's subconscious within his loneliness and in times when homosexuals were persecuted in Cuba. While he talks to himself in the mirror, he finds himself in front of the piano, transformed in vulnerability, hope and frustration.
