Frozen in Time - Havana
The City
Havana. A combination of a survivalist spirit through piracy, colonialism and mobster rule, and an indefatigable salsa energy that ricochets off walls. A place where the old leisurely meets the new. A day of waking up in a local casa and browsing the sparse store shelves in old Havana, before discovering the sharp boost in spending power that access to the Cuban Peso offers.

The Ink
The Old Man and the Sea depicts the story of an elderly Cuban fisherman who endured a punishing life yet clenches on each sparks of hope presented to him. He laments the ruins of his lionheart dream, and yet he remains unbowed. Perhaps it is better to sail an ocean of hope than a sea of despair. Never mind what lies beneath: a world without dreamers would be a nightmare.
