Synopsis

Chile, 1948: Senator Pablo Neruda, diplomat and future Nobel Prize-winning poet, accuses the government of betraying the Communist Party and is swiftly impeached. Pursued by the police, Neruda and his artist wife are forced into hiding and an intimate game of cat and mouse begins.

MUBI's take

Delving into the myth of literary giant Pablo Neruda, Pablo Larraín fashions a clever subversion of the biographical genre. A whirlwind of meta-cinema starring Gael Garcia Bernal, Larraín’s “anti-biopic” inhabits the poet’s idiosyncratic universe to become a truly Nerudian film.
