Summary
El SS Saint Louis pasó varios días anclado en La Habana en 1939 a la espera de las autoridades cubanas a permitir que 900 refugiados judíos de Alemania en su país. Confiado en que una pintura de Rembrandt que había pertenecido a su familia desde el siglo 17 - y que habían introducido de contrabando en el barco - sería convencer a los cubanos a dejarlos entrar, el pequeño Daniel Kaminsky y su tío esperaban en el muelle para sus familiares a la tierra . Sin embargo, su plan fracasó y la nave volvió a Alemania, llevándose con ella toda posibilidad de encuentro. En 2007, con el llanto de la pintura en Londres, hijo de Daniel, Elías, viaja desde los EE. UU. a La Habana con el fin de averiguar lo que pasó con esta obra y para su familia. Detective Mario Conde es el único que le puede ayudar.
The S.S. Saint Louis spent several days anchored at Havana in 1939 while waiting for the Cuban authorities to allow 900 Jewish refugees from Germany into their country. Confident that a painting by Rembrandt that had belonged to their family since the 17th century -- and which they had smuggled into the ship -- would convince the Cubans to let them in, little Daniel Kaminsky and his uncle waited at the dock for their relatives to land. However their plan failed and the ship returned to Germany, taking away with her any chance of encounter. In 2007, with the crying of the painting in London, Daniel's son, Elías, travels from the US to Havana in order to find out what happened to this artwork and to his family. Detective Mario Conde is the only one who can help him.
