Eine Geschichte über die Liebe, wie nur Gabriel García Márquez sie schreiben konnte. Jedes Jahr fährt Ana Magdalena Bach im August mit der Fähre zu einer Karibikinsel, um dort auf das Grab ihrer Mutter einen Gladiolenstrauß zu legen. Jedes Jahr geht sie danach in ein Touristenhotel und isst abends allein an der Bar ein Käse-Schinken-Toast. Dieses Mal jedoch wird sie von einem Mann zu einem Drink eingeladen.
