SYNOPSIS
A tribute to the vibrant life of Alicia Parla, the Cuban sensation who set the 1920s ablaze with Rumba. At 89, facing cancer, Alicia reflects on her illustrious past, clashing with a doctor's plea for her to seek treatment, while in the night, a young girl's tears echo her own enduring spirit.
