Contents/Summary

Summary
After lightening struck the televison antenna and hits the carrier signal, Jose Manuel decided to take matters in his own hands and carry on with the program by himself. He takes his mule and his television set to different local peoplefrom the Sierra Maestra (Cuba) and interviews them about their lives and the problems in the community. Neither he nor his interviewees seem to be disturbed by the setting of the interviews, as they speak to each other through the empty frame of an ex-television. This film takes a gentle look at how one mna uses his creativity and humor to produce social change in a small village in Cuba.
