Sinopsis

Dos hombres, aparentemente muertos, se encuentran en un bar y comienzan a hablar del pasado. Don Federico, ya de noventa años, recuerda su madurez en una antigua hacienda y a los personajes que rodearon su existencia en ese lugar, mientras intenta permanentemente terminar la novela que escribe.
Mención Especial del Jurado, Premio Pedro Sienna, Chile, 2006.

We’re in a bar in Santiago in Chili. Two old men drink and talk. It seems that one of them is writing a novel. It’s a strange conversation: they speak about themselves as if they’re already dead. The supposed novelist, Don Federico, gathers matchsticks in his wine glass. A strange atmosphere settles over them.
Just where are we exactly – in the realm of the dead? Not exactly. More like a past life, in the world of memories. For Don Federico begins to evoke his youth, when in lived in the country.
