One day  he notices that the inhabitants of Havana are getting more and more aggressive and well, dead. Juan decides that the best way to  cope with it is to make a buck out of the situation. &#8220;Juan of the dead, we kill your loved ones&#8221;  is his slogan, and his mission is to help people get rid of those pesky undead relatives that folk may not want to slaughter themselves &#8230; for a price, of course. But the situation gets worse &#8212;  while everyone is escaping to Miami by sea, Juan is left  with no choice but to become a hero, staying to defend his country and  protect his own life on an island that has turned into a real bloodbath.
