While her parents’ naturalization papers are being processed, Zaydita is left to take care of her grandmother, Juana, who suffers from dementia. After what seems like forever, Zaydita decides to shake things up a bit and go out on the town on the eve of her birthday, which also happens to be the coldest day of winter in Cuba.
