Synopsis "Guayacanal (in Spanish)"

En Guayacanal -el nombre de la finca de su familia, en torno a la cual ocurría la vida-, William Ospina cuenta la historia de sus bisabuelos, de sus abuelos y de Padua y sus contornos, el lugar en el que nació y donde pasó una infancia feliz y embrujadora que, comprueba él, nunca lo ha abandonado.
