Reina and Constancia Aguero are Cuban sisters who have been estranged for thirty years. Reina—tall, darkly beautiful, and magnetically sexual—still lives in her homeland. Once a devoted daughter of la revolucion, she now basks in the glow of her many admiring suitors, believing only in what she can grasp with her five senses.
