Synopsis

In January, 1964, the author of the novel “Time Of Silence”, Luis Martín-Santos, was killed in a tragic car accident. Now, 60 years after the accident and on the centenary of his birth, we follow his children on a journey to reconstruct the writer and psychiatrist, and to discover the man beyond the work that turned him into a bright star in the literary world. With the use of never-before-seen texts, we will take a deep dive into Martín-Santos’ unique vision of postwar Spain and his second novel, which has been hidden for all these years.
