min. Spanish with english subtitles.
1946, and dictator-to-be Juan Per�n has become president or has he?
and Jorge Luis Borges (Miguel �ngel Sol�) and his mother are
commenting on the shouts outside their window.... And suddenly the
life of the great writer and some of his works are intertwined: in
the National Library, he's threatened by a government goon, then
later fantasizes beating him in a knife fight. He romances Blanca
Oteyza's Beatriz Viterbo, then sees her as being slowly being
poisoned by her husband, in a situation reminiscent of Hitchcock's
SUSPICION and NOTORIOUS, in this Borgesean interweaving of texts.
Es 1946 y el futuro dictador Juan Per�n se ha convertido en
presidente �o no? y Jorge Luis Borges (Miguel �ngel Sol�) y su madre
est�n comentando sobre los gritos que se escuchan fuera de la
ventana ... Y de pronto, la vida del gran escritor y algunos de sus
trabajos se entremezclan: en la Biblioteca Nacional es amenazado por
un est�pido del gobierno y luego se imagina que le gana en una pelea
a cuchillo. Entabla un romance con Beatriz Viterbo (Blanca Oteyza),
para luego verla lentamente envenenada por su esposo, en una
situaci�n que es una reminiscencia de SUSPICION y NOTORIOUS de
Hitchcock, en este evocativo tejido borgiano de textos.
