Each day contains a set of rituals in which we all participate in; sometimes we are too blind to notice the beauty and meaning behind it all. The director creates a cinematic poem using images from Havana, Cuba to express the cycle of life and death and how the end of one leads to the beginning of another and the way it blends together. This is a very moving portrait of Havana that is significant to all people and cultures.

After academic studies in Costa Rica and Canada, Victor graduated an Industrial Engineer from the USMA, Panama. Later he would go on to studies in Still Photography and Television Production. In 2004, he graduated from the EICTV- the International Film School in Cuba, focusing on documentary filmmaking. He has worked on several shorts, fiction and documentary, as a director, cinemathographer and editor.
