A forgotten muse and three poets walk into a Spanish parlor—history gets messy.
The story of Francisca Sánchez del Pozo, " Paca ", and the Prince of letters, the Nicaraguan Rubén Darío. In 1956, Francisca Sánchez, married to José Villacastín, and already in the twilight of her life, receives in Navalsaúz two writers, Antonio Oliver and Carmen Conde.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Rubén Darío essentially invented Spanish-language modernismo; Paca's obscurity is the rule, not exception.
Ana Wagener plays Emilia Pardo Bazán, a famous feminist writer who actually knew Darío in real life.
