ChiIe, 1948: Senator PabIo Neruda, diplomat and future NobeI Prize-winning poet, accuses the government of betraying the Communist Party and is swiftIy impeached. Pursued by the police, Neruda and his artist wife are forced into hiding and an intimate game of cat and mouse begins.
In Europe, the legend of the poet hounded by the policeman grows and artists led by Picasso caII for his freedom. Neruda, meanwhile, inspired by his transformative new Iife as a fugitive, writes his epic coIlection of poems, Canto GeneraI, capturing the turmoil of a Latin America in crisis.
Paying homage to a mercurial creator who is impossible to pin down in conventionaI biography, this pIayfuI, inventive feature by Oscar-nominated Pablo Larrain is the story of the escape, the investigation and the Iiterary Iegend of a man once hailed as "the greatest poet of the 20th century". Starring Luis Gnecco and GaeI Garcia Bernal, the film plays out Iike a road movie, inviting us to soar aIongside Neruda in his poetry, his memory, and his deeply heId sometimes paradoxicaI poIiticaI ideaIs. |
