Description
Summary:
One summer night in Havana, the body of a German tourist, with large wings attached to his shoulders and a bottle of rum in his hand, is discovered in the garden of a house shared by many families. Lorenzo, a young policeman from the provinces assigned to Havana to track down grave robbers, decides to investigate in an effort to advance his lacklustre career. His investigation turns out to be one that is complicated and hilarious, involving German filmmakers, Nazi spies, midgets, magic potions, nightclub dancers, antique dealers, elevator operators and an aging "internationalist" sexpot who sleeps her way around the world.
