Plot

As in a documentary, the confrontation between two of the most famous writers of Spanish literature at the beginning of the 17th century is relived: Miguel de Cervantes and Lope de Vega. A 21st-century television team moved to Madrid in 1614 to interview Cervantes, Lope and the people around them. It is the moment of the publication of Avellaneda's apocryphal Don Quixote and the confrontation between the two geniuses has exploded with all its force. The mockumentary delves into the intrigue about Avellaneda's true identity and, incidentally, defines Cervantes and Lope de Vega as two brilliant characters, but full of insecurities and permanently dissatisfied.
