Manual para inmigrantes — At the end of the 1970s, a theater director is mistaken for a leftist militant exiled in Sweden during the last Argentine military dictatorship. Forty years later, while rehearsing a play about this story, he meets the militant and they travel together to Sweden in search of the vestiges of the immigrant experience.
