Quiero morir en tus brazos

Overview

Eduardo, a middle-aged man, receives news that compels him to abandon everything and return to his hometown in Patagonia. He longs to reconnect with his girlfriend of twenty years, whose love he foolishly sacrificed to face life from that point forward. His childhood, his family, the consequences of Argentina's fragmentation during that era (Perón's fall in the fifties, the dictatorship of the seventies, the devastation of the nineties). His deepest affections, his sorrows, his fears resurface in memories of those years as if they were the causes of the destiny he imposed upon himself, transforming him into who he is; placing him at the beginning—which is also the end—of a futile life disguised as success.
