Eduardo de la Serna

The actors of "Cyrano a Franco-Argentine vaudeville" fight at the time of greatest success of the play. After a few months, the director, Pablo Bontá, decides to replace the project with a new actor. To follow this process of reconstruction is to immerse oneself in the odyssey of the independent Argentine theater.

A corpse appears in the underground tunnels of a house, or perhaps they're the dark corridors of the subway. The dead man doesn't speak, yet stories are woven around him. Just like in a novel, the characters create their own fiction, a story to tell to children, to society, or a way to imagine the missing passages of recent Argentine history. Félix the pool attendant and Kike the subway employee, both writers, take us, not without humor, to a narrative beyond the daily life: What remains to be resolved? How do you clean a pool full of frogs? Who is the dead man in the trunk? Is he one of the many people who disappeared during the dictatorship?
