En el invierno de 1944, la Gestapo busca a Jorge Semprún en Buchenwald. Los prisioneros comunistas, al interceptar el mensaje, planean ocultarlo tras la identidad de un preso agonizante. Este recuerdo lleva a Semprún al núcleo del campo de la muerte, donde la esperanza y la solidaridad contrastan con el horror. Sus recuerdos nos llevan del París ocupado a la clandestinidad, mientras el retorno al pasado adquiere un sentido superior a la luz del presente, evocando amigos, camaradas de la Resistencia, recuerdos de la infancia en Madrid y perfiles femeninos.
Jorge Semprún Maura was a Spanish writer and politician who lived in France most of his life and wrote primarily in French. From 1953 to 1962, during the dictatorship of Francisco Franco, Semprún lived clandestinely in Spain working as an organizer for the exiled Communist Party of Spain, but was expelled from the party in 1964. After the death of Franco and the change to a democratic government, he served as Minister of Culture in Spain's socialist government from 1988 to 1991.
