Yolanda, a young teacher, works in Havana in the new district of Miraflores, which was built in 1962 to resettle the inhabitants of a poor district. Every day she has to deal with the reservations of a population that was used to living on the fringes of society at the time. She is in love with Mario, a young worker who is looking for a new identity in the revolutionary brigades. In a mixture of documentary and fiction, De Cierta Manera denounces the oppression of women, the cult of masculinity and class violence in Cuban society.
