In October 2016, the Colombian film director Sergio Cabrera attends a retrospective of his films in Barcelona. It is a difficult moment: his father, Fausto Cabrera, has just died; His marriage is in crisis, and his country has rejected peace agreements that would have allowed it to end more than fifty years of war. Over a few revealing days, Sergio will remember the events that marked his life and that of his father. From the Spanish civil war to the exile in America of his republican family, from the China of the Cultural Revolution to the armed movements of the sixties, the reader will witness a life that is much more than a great adventure: it is an image of the medium century of history that upset the whole world.
