Diego a cultivated apolitical sceptical young artist living in Havana initiates a friendship with fiercely communist homophobe David with the intention of seducing him. David knowing this allows the relationship to build so he can spy on a person he sees as aberrant and dangerous to the communist cause. Despite their conflicting sexualities and political ideologies the two slowly build a relationship out of their differences proving that camaraderie and friendship can overcome the most divisive superficialities. An exploration into the seduction of the mind Strawberry And Chocolate shows how politics can shape lives opinions and relationships. Hugely controversial in Cuba even now the film was the first to feature a gay man as the hero while openly criticising the Government and its widespread intolerance.
