The Project of the Century

When the USSR collapsed, so did the Soviet-Cuban plan to build the Caribbean’s first nuclear power plant. Twenty-five years later the “Project of the Century” remains unfinished, colouring the lives of the inhabitants of the nearby Electro-Nuclear City (ENC). Three generations of men —Otto, Rafael and Leo—live in an apartment in the ENC, unable to get on with one another. Trapped by the promise of a future that never came, they are the unwilling protagonists in this radioactive ballad to solitary men.
