Plot.

Santa, a peasant woman loyal to the Revolution, is sent to guard Andrés, a gay writer who is under house arrest, considered “ untrustworthy” for his ideas and sexuality by the Cuban authorities. Set in a small village in eastern Cuba during the early 1980s, this poignant political drama depicts an encounter between two deeply thoughtful souls on opposite sides of a profound cultural divide. Both have experienced deep loss, and both know the damaging effects of isolation and oppression. Even so, the cavernous ideological divide separating them — the same one that has separated Cuban friends and kin for over 50 years — has until now seemed insurmountable.

Wiki.

Santa & Andres (Spanish: Santa y Andrés) is a 2016 internationally co-produced drama film written and directed by Carlos Lechuga.

The film had its world premiere in the Contemporary World Cinema section at the 2016 Toronto International Film Festival. It was shown at the San Sebastián, Zurich, Chicago, Göteborg, Miami, Cartagena, and Guadalajara film festival where it won best actor, among others. It was also initially selected to be screened at the 2016 Havana Film Festival, which, in 2014, had bestowed its "Unproduced Script Award" to the film's script, but was subsequently excluded at the instigation of the state-run Instituto Cubano del Arte e Industria Cinematográficos. After having initially been invited to screen in competition at the Havana Film Festival New York in April 2017, the film was relegated to a special screening – according to Variety due to pressure from the ICAIC – and then, out of protest, pulled altogether by Lechuga.
