Someone experiences a sex change on a round trip to Havana. Somebody else switches passports, never to return. Yet one more visits his former home in Cuba and bumps into a peculiar tenant. The stories in Malas lenguas are the narrative of the comings and goings of a never ending, banal exile, threaded with the salt of rotten memories.
