Cuban small business owner eyes the future

The average salary of Cubans is $20 (£13) per month. But those who are working in the private sector can make more, like Sergio, a cobbler who is working hard to maintain his family and people's footwear. He brings in as much as $50 a month.

New shoes are expensive in Cuba, and Sergio is proud of what he does with the old ones.
