Synopsis

Isabel, a young professor, forms a tentative friendship with an older poet—both of them Chilean exiles now living in Spain. But when the poet decides to make a dangerous journey home and leaves Isabel the keys to his apartment, she discovers a mysterious Latin text the poet was translating and, with it, another dimension to the horrors they experienced under Pinochet.
