Short description

She is a scientist. He is a Lebanese doctor. They meet at a banquet and fall into a carefree, passionate relationship. But difficulties abound because of his heritage and her loveless marriage. She flies to Havana to sort things out on the beach and in the cabarets. She sends him a ticket, but harbors no illusions that He will join her in this Caribbean melting pot.

What's left behind the scenes

All the lines in the film are delivered in verse.
Havana was used instead of Beirut, as no one would insure filming in Beirut after the war in Iraq.
Joan Allen was unable to travel to Cuba for filming due to travel restrictions imposed on US citizens by the government in Havana. Instead, the scenes featuring her character were filmed in the nearby Dominican Republic.
