Pa kao

Hired to shape a retired colonel's memories into a book, Emil, a young writer convinced of his own genius, spends his days listening to the old man, and falls for Ana, the beautiful young woman who looks after him. The colonel becomes the pretext for a string of misunderstandings between the lovers, who are caught in a chaos that is both social and domestic. Family ties, the gulf between generations and the impossibility of a real meeting between two people play out inside an apparently ordinary affair, while Emil loses the ability to tell what is real from what he imagines.
