The adventures, fortunes and misfortunes of resourceful peasant Juan Quin Quin - in turns bullfighter, guerrilla fighter and sacristan - who never resigns himself to his fate. Set against the backdrop of 1950s Cuba and steeped in the island's countryside traditions, this comedy is considered the first successful Cuban experimental film.
