These women think, due to her social position, that they live in a “bubble of soap”. Nevertheless, when this mirage explodes, they remain in the air, in a free fall. Based on a novel by Ricardo Garibay.
Ruben lives in Cuba and Andy is exile in the United States. Both are trapped by history at opposite poles and want to change places, but they can't do it.
Teresa is overwhelmed: with a husband, three young sons, a job as a crew leader in a textile factory, and volunteer commitments as cultural leader of her union. Her husband, Ramón, wants more of her attention; her feelings are mixed, wanting domestic peace, feeling responsibilities to the revolution, and wanting to control her own life beyond doing dirty dishes. They separate; he begins an affair. When he wants a reconciliation, she asks what his response would be if she'd had an affair too. "But men are different," is his reply. He's failed her test, and to hold on to independence and self-respect, she remains uncompromising and hard-edged.
The world of a young psychiatrist is shattered when she finds out that her husband is having an affair with one of her patients.
