SYNOPSIS
On the outskirts of the city of Havana there is a small town. In this small town there is a rural school. In the school there is a swimming teacher who prepares five children for a competition. The only swimming pool in the village is empty. In order not to lose the illusion, the teacher takes his students through the surrounding villages in search of a full pool. Since he cannot find “water”, he will invent a solution so that his students do not lose hope of winning the competition.
