    • Synopsis
    • An imminent heritage leads Tamara Lucarini, the last descendant of the sculptor Joaquín Lucarini, to revise the need to leave a mark on the history of Basque Art that has her uncle Leonardo, the manager and the last sculptor of the family saga.

      Through the approach to Leonardo, Tamara will face a concern that haunts them: what will become of the family legacy when Tamara and her brother have to manage it.

      The figure of her grandfather, who had anarchist ties, was a recognized artist in Bilbao before and during the Franco’s regimen, it has been built over time by many family voices. Tamara senses his legacy as the last connection with a family that is disappearing. His story is the means that still unites them, however, the interpretations of his story are different for each one. In these differences, Tamara will try to understand the need that exists in her family for a search for recognition in "the permanent" of the legacy: the sculptures, the drawings, the surname, in the artistic identity of a saga...
