El muerto y ser feliz

The third film by Javier Rebollo and screenwriter Lola Mayo returned to the world of solitary main characters whose silence hides a stormy past. In the case of the role played by José Sacristán: Santos, a dying and hard man who flees from an inevitable end as part of a way of having lived, as a non-stop escape forward.

Synopsis: Buenos Aires. On the top floor of a hospital, a Spaniard who has spent half his life in Argentina realizes that he is dying. This dry, funny and cute old hitman gets away with a happy shipment of morphine, and heads north to nowhere. A girl he meets on the road will be his faithful squire.
