�No matar�s, hijo, t� no matar�s. Porque ning�n hombre vuelve a ser el mismo despu�s de haber quitado la vida a otro hombre.� Fernando, joven editor hijo de un republicano represaliado, decide huir de una Espa�a abatida por la Guerra Civil. En su aventura le acompa�an sus amigos Catalina y Eulogio, cada uno escapando de sus propias circunstancias. Los tres j�venes viven una gran historia de amistad y lealtad a lo largo del tiempo que les lleva a recorrer escenarios como la Alejandr�a de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, el Par�s ocupado, Lisboa, Praga, Boston o Santiago de Chile. Un canto a la amistad Madrid, 1941. Fernando, Catalina y Eulogio han crecido juntos en un barrio madrile�o cercano al convento de la Encarnaci�n. La Guerra Civil acaba de concluir y todos ellos intentan sobreponerse a los estragos que ha causado en sus vidas y las de sus seres queridos. Fernando vive con su madre, Isabel, aguardando la liberaci�n de su padre, encarcelado por sus ideales republicanos y confiando en un indulto que nunca llega. Catalina vive en la misma calle de la Encarnaci�n. Su familia se ha arruinado durante la guerra y, para poder hacer frente a las deudas, su padre pretende casarla con un hombre por el que no siente ning�n afecto. Eulogio es quien m�s ha perdido a causa de la guerra. Su padre muri� luchando y �l mismo ha quedado lisiado tras un acto heroico en el frente en el que salv� la vida de Marvin, un joven hispanista estadounidense que lleg� a Espa�a en el 36 para estudiar la literatura del siglo de oro y, al estallar la guerra, decidi� quedarse y plasmar el dolor del conflicto en un celebrado poemario. Las perspectivas de futuro son cada vez m�s negras para los tres j�venes que deciden unir sus destinos y emprender una nueva vida lejos de Madrid para poner a salvo lo poco que les queda. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "You shall not kill, son, you shall not kill, because no man can be the same after taking another man's life." Fernando, a young literary editor and the son of a persecuted Spanish Republican, decides to flee a Spain battered by the Civil War. His friends, Catalina and Eulogio, escaping their own circumstances, join him in the adventure. The three young friends live a great story of unwavering friendship and loyalty which takes them on a journey through Second World War Alexandria, occupied Paris, Lisbon, Prague, Boston and Chile. An ode to friendship Fernando, Catalina and Eulogio have grown together in a Madrid neighborhood close to the Encarnaci�n convent. The Spanish Civil War has just ended and the young trio try to recover from the impact it had on their lives and those of their families. Fernando lives with his mother, Isabel, awaiting his father's liberation -incarcerated because of his Republican ideals-, hoping for an absolution that never arrives. Catalina lives on the same street. Her family has come to ruins during the Civil War and in order to confront their debts, her father plans to marry her to a man she despises. Eulogio is the one whose war losses are greatest. His father died in combat and he himself returned from war a cripple after a heroic act which saved Marvin's life, a young American who arrived in Spain in 1936 to study literature, and when war broke, decided to stay and portray the pain of conflict in a celebrated poem anthology. The future's perspectives look grimmer each day for the three friends. They decide to unite their destinies and embark on a new life away from Madrid to save the little that they have left.
