The Terrible Power of Fiction

Overview

María Finojosa, wife of Spanish settler Juan de Cervantes, tunes into the fragile memory of the exact moment when her husband became obsessed with founding a town that would perpetuate his family name. In the middle of the 19th century, in the mountains of Costa Rica, María's memory of her husband's Quixote-like delusions, unravels like the reel of an old film, projected onto the persistent rain and the constant lurking of the cracks of fiction.
