The Pool Boy, the Metro Delegate and the Corpse

About this movie

A corpse appears in the underground tunnels of a house, or perhaps they're the dark corridors of the subway. The dead man doesn't speak, yet stories are woven around him. Just like in a novel, the characters create their own fiction, a story to tell to children, to society, or a way to imagine the missing passages of recent Argentine history. Félix the pool attendant and Kike the subway employee, both writers, take us, not without humor, to a narrative beyond the daily life: What remains to be resolved? How do you clean a pool full of frogs? Who is the dead man in the trunk? Is he one of the many people who disappeared during the dictatorship?
