From the streets of 1950s New York to the heart of Havana, step into a world of big bets and bold characters. Follow a cast of gamblers, showgirls and dreamers as they chase luck, dodge commitment, and discover that love doesn’t always play by the rules. 

At its heart, two love stories unfold in unexpected ways, reminding us that sometimes the biggest gamble is falling for someone. 

Supported by Walter and Norma Nimmo.
