Smokers (Los Fumadores) is a drama about two Cuban exiles living in Miami, Rita and Gustavo, and their day-to-day lives. After tragedy occurs, Rita's estranged son Manuel arrives to spend time with her. He soon becomes obsessed over a family secret regarding his deceased sister. He attempts to come to terms with this secret while reconciling with his mother.

A satire about Cuban machismo, middle-school drama, and environmental messaging through connected vignettes: a frustrated Miami science teacher forces apathetic students to pick up litter in detention, the drama those students actually care about, and an overworked Cuban father who challenges the teacher. One day of tension building, bursting, and bursting some more from the perspectives of the teacher, the student, and her father.
