    • Synopsis
    • The Uruguayan writer José Pedro Díaz had as a hobby the cinema. Between 1950 and 1952 he created a film diary with images of great value, which display a range of diverse interests: social observation, the portrait of the artistic-intellectual community in Europe and a view of domestic travel cinema, by portraying his wife , the poet Amanda Berenguer. His literary diary is added as a perfect complement. Both form a unique testimonial chronicle: how to read the script and see what was filmed.
