Info

Plot

Throughout history, Spanish cinema has had very notorious people and actors, and Fernando Méndez-Leite is one of them. Leite marks more than half a century of culture and entertainment, and his memory does not stop only at his film legacy, but the actor has observed several of the political, cultural and social changes that this country has experienced.

The writing of his memoirs and his novel, based on his autobiographical experiences, are the sources chosen by this documentary to make a deep journey through the life of Fernando Méndez-Leite, where he mixes the intimate and the collective through a look that seeks refuge in the universe of cinema.

From his life journey, fiction and reality intersect and mix, all from the basement of his house, where he inhabits a fantastic and historical world: his own; with his films, cards, photographs, sticker collections, folders and other objects, Leite is transported to the past. The actor will be accompanied by other people with their testimonies that will serve to reflect a time and an era that have already begun to disappear in their ways of understanding life.

The documentary is directed by Moisés Salama, with a script co-written by himself and Miguel Ángel Oeste, and has been produced by the Academia de Cine, Estela Producciones and Radio Televisión Española, among others.
