Over the course of just a few months at the start of the of the 21st century, the musician Kandyman's disruptive sound took Cuba by assault. He then suddenly disappeared, not without first having altered the cultural landscape of one of the music epicenters of the world. In the midst of a unique sociopolitical situation during a key moment in Cuban history, EN LA CALIENTE tells the story of Cuban reggaeton's origins, hand in hand with an irreverent youth living its own revolution.
