Spoilers ahead

Pepe is a trumpet player in 1930s Havana who lives a double life, balancing smoky bandstands with dangerous fantasies of toppling Cuba’s government under Gerardo Machado. Off the stage, he toys with quasi-terrorist plots, unaware that he is a vampire, and that his uncle Werner Amadeus Von Dracula—the son of Count Dracula—has been using him as a test subject for a serum that negates the usual fatal effects of sunlight. This strange inheritance threads through Pepe’s days, blending music, secrecy, and a growing sense that there is more at stake than grooves and applause.
