Four Season in Havana: The Winds of Lent

While hot winds give nights in Havana a lashing, police inspector Conde meets Karina, a mysterious woman he finds immensely attractive. At the same time a policeman as unorthodox as himself is assigned to investigating the murder of Lissette Núñez, a teacher at the same pre-university college where Conde himself had studied. Parallel to the early days of his intense relationship with Karina, Conde builds a portrait of Lissette's hidden life that leads him to the murderer and shows him that the scenario of his far-off student days has changed too much, just as the unfathomable and contradictory city of Havana has changed.
