ChiIe, 1948: Senator Pablo Neruda, diplomat and future NobeI Prize-winning poet, accuses the government of betraying the Communist Party and is swiftly impeached. Pursued by the police, Neruda and his artist wife are forced into hiding and an intimate game of cat and mouse begins.
ln Europe, the legend of the poet hounded by the poIiceman grows and artists Ied by Picasso call for his freedom. Neruda, meanwhiIe, inspired by his transformative new life as a fugitive, writes his epic colIection of poems, Canto General, capturing the turmoiI 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 like a road movie, inviting us to soar alongside Neruda in his poetry, his memory, and his deepIy held sometimes paradoxical political ideals. |
