Havana, shortly before the arrival of 2001. Victorio, a man in his forties, is evicted from his home a few days before the building crumbles to the ground. He wanders along the city, defeated and astray, until he meets Salma, a young jinetera hounded by a beautiful and merciless procuress. Together they arrive at the ruins of an old abandoned theatre looking for refuge and are taken in by an eccentric old acrobat and clown who they have seen perform on the streets. Soon Victorio and Salma discover that perhaps the old theatre is the distant palace that was waiting for them, and that the mission of the clown is to free his friends from exhaustion and boredom through the use of surprise and beauty.Abilio Estevez is the author of 'Los Palacios Distantes (Coleccion Andanzas) (Spanish Edition)', published 2002 under ISBN 9788483102145 and ISBN 8483102145.
