Directed by the award-winning filmmaker Pablo Larrain ("Jackie"), this Golden Globe-nominated film features international star Gael García Bernal as a policeman chasing Pablo Neruda, perhaps the most important poet of the 20th century and a hugely influential political figure.. It's 1948, and the Cold War has reached Chile. Following a ban on communism, Neruda and wife Delia are forced into hiding. Beloved by the populace, they slip underground and are pursued by incompetent, vainglorious police inspector Oscar Peluchonneau, hoping to make a name for himself by capturing the country's most infamous fugitive.. Blending visual grandeur and literary wit, NERUDA is a beguiling reinvention of the 'standard' cinematic biography. Playfully confounding expectations at every turn, the film offers a startling rumination on the split between the person and persona, the man and the artist.. Winner of Best Actor and the Cine Latino Award at the Palm Springs International Film Festival.. "Sweeping, poignant, bizarre, funny and unique." - Nicholas Barber, Newsweek
