During a driving lesson, two Cuban siblings – a newly arrived trans woman (Lola Bosch) and her estranged conservative brother (Ariel Texidó) – face each other for the first time in years, with a silent Miami bearing witness outside their car windows.

From local filmmaker Hansel Porras Garcia, Tropical Park is a hybrid observational drama film shot in a single take and a love letter to Miami.

One of countless stories from the Cuban exile experience in the U.S., it’s a quiet meditation on coexistence, memory, and empathy. Here, Garcia explores what it means to share space with those who see the world through a different lens, and how love evolves when certain identities gently disrupt what once felt unquestionable.
