Todo Lo Sólido merges documentary and fantasy to tell the story of an island sinking into the Caribbean Sea. Searching for answers to make sense of the imminent storm, a nameless  drifter visits a spiritist practicing Santería. After summoning the drifter’s ancestors, the spiritist confirms the sinking of the island. Traveling around present-day Cuba, the drifter will begin a journey in search for the causes behind the potential disappearance of his homeland. The Drifter’s voice is simultaneously the voice of the filmmaker merging diaristic and fictionalized points of view. During his journey, the Drifter encounters five characters:a HISTORIAN, a FISHERMAN, a FARMER, a TOURIST and a CONTRACTOR.
