Return to Ithaca is a moving story about friendship, memory, and exile, set in Havana. A group of friends gathers to celebrate the return of Amadeo, who has been in exile for 16 years. As the night progresses, they share memories, secrets, and reflections on their lives and the Cuba they know. The conversation becomes a mirror of their hopes, disappointments, and the persistent connection to their homeland. A deep exploration of identity, displacement, and the bonds that endure despite time and distance.
