Wasp Network

In Havana in the early 1990s, pilot René González (Édgar Ramírez) leaves his wife Olga (Penélope Cruz) and daughter Irma (Carolina Peraza Matamoros) in Cuba to start a new life in the United States. He secretly flies to Miami on a stolen plane (Antonov An-2). González soon joins a group of Cuban exiles and Castro opponents, Brothers to the Rescue, who operate from Florida and act against the Cuban regime through military operations and also aim to disintegrate the Cuban tourism industry. They even fly over Cuban airspace. A Cuban secret organisation named la Red Avispa, or the "Wasp Network," in English is directed by Gerardo Hernández, also known as Manuel Viramontez (Gael García Bernal).
