The classic book originally released in 1979 and made into a film starring William Hurt in 1985.
In an Argentine prison, the growing friendship between a thirty-seven year-old homosexual, Molina, and a young Marxist, Valentin is threatened when police officials start pressuring Molina to spy against Valentin.
Valentin and Molina seemingly share little other than a cell in this queer classic ahead of its time.
Sometimes they talk all night long.
In the still darkness of their Buenos Aires prison cell, Molina re-weaves the glittering and fragile stories of the film he loves, and the cynical Valentin listens. Valentin believes in the just cause that makes all suffering bearable; Molina believes in the magic of love that makes all else endurable. Though they seemingly share little other than a cell, the two form a bond so intimate - and a relationship so profoundly affecting - that only the other could understand.
'A visionary work that breathed life into certain dimensions of human possibility long before society at large was prepared to imagine them.'
