After refusing big and prestigious awards all over the world, Mr. Mantovani, a Nobel Prize winner for Literature, accepts an invitation to visit his hometown in Argentina, which has been the inspiration for all of his books. It turns out that accepting this invitation is the worst idea of his life. Expect the unexpected when you have used real people as characters in your novels! Winner of the 2017 Goya for best Iberoamerican Film.
