Isaki Lacuesta
In his first feature film, Isaki Lacuesta evokes the mysterious figure of Arthur Cravan, especially Oscar Wilde, poet, boxer, adventurer and one of the most fascinating characters of the 20th century, who disappeared in 1918, at the age of 30, while sailing in the Gulf of Mexico. The film, which contains a wealth of images from the period that are as ghostly as Cravan's life, uses a clever narrative device that turns everything into a detective game: the narrator is also a boxer and a poet.
