Synopsis
Oscar Restrepo’s obsession with poetry has brought him no glory. Aging and erratic, he has succumbed to the cliché of the poet in the shadows. Meeting Yurlady, a teenage girl from humble roots, and helping her cultivate her talent brings some light to his days. But dragging her into the world of poets may not be the way.
هوس أوسكار ريستريبو بالشعر لم يجلب له أي مجد. فقد تقدّم في السن وأصبح مضطرباً، مستسلماً لكليشيه "الشاعر المنعزل في الظلال". تسطع شمس أيامه مع لقائه ليورلايدي، وهي فتاة مراهقة من أصول متواضعة، لكن هل جرّها إلى عالم الشعراء هو الطريق الصحيح؟
