In 1948, the famous Chilean poet and senator Pablo Neruda is forced into hiding when the government declares communism illegal. The story is told from the perspective of a fictional police inspector obsessed with capturing him. The pursuit becomes a cerebral and poetic game of cat and mouse, with Neruda leaving deliberate clues and taunting his pursuer, blurring the lines between reality and fiction in a meta-fictional chase.
