La Chimera
Alice Rohrwacher · 2023
Todos tenemos una quimera, algo que deseamos hacer, tener, pero que nunca encontramos. Para la banda de 'tombaroli', los ladrones de antiguas tumbas y de yacimientos arqueológicos, la quimera es soñar con dejar de trabajar y hacerse ricos sin esfuerzo. Para Arthur, la quimera se parece a Benjamina, la mujer a la que perdió. Con tal de encontrarla, Arthur se enfrentará a lo invisible, indagará por todas partes, penetrará en la tierra, decidido a encontrar la puerta que lleva al Más Allá de que hablan los mitos. En su osado recorrido entre vivos y muertos, bosques y ciudades, fiestas y soledades, los destinos de los personajes se cruzan, todos en busca de su quimera.
