Cuba in the 1850s

In its final days, the Spanish Empire's heavy hand touches everything in Cuba, one of its last remaining colonies in the Americas. Some benefit from the corruption, inequality, and slave-based economy; but many in the island are chafing under the Spanish rule and hoping for a better, freer world. This is one Cuban family's story during this turbulent time.
