I'm gonna edit the dream a little bit but overall it was basically this...

Story takes place before Fidel died, so let's say the early 2010s. Bank robber gets a hold of a Che biography and is so moved that he becomes a commie. Robber comes to adore Che. One day he sees Felix Rodriguez (the bastard who murdered Che) wearing Che's wristwatch like a trophy on TV during an interview. Our hero becomes overwhelmed with rage. He assembles his crew to steal the watch back. In my dream they just break into his house and beat the shit out of Rodriguez, so for an actual movie we might need to workshop that a bit. Then the crew goes to Havana and presents the watch to Fidel and Raul, who cry tears of joy.

Fin.

    Yeah, it's tricky. I'm trying to write a communist adjacent medieval play but the problem is exactly this. The peasants want less taxes, but a modern viewer will just interpret it libertarianly unless I'm very careful and on the nose.
