Regreso a Coronel Vallejos: La traición de Manuel Puig

Country: Argentina, Language: Spanish

  • Director: Carlos Castro
  • Writer: Carlos Castro; Gustavo Alonso

CGiii Comment

A bitter postcard of the town of the Buenos Aires countryside that Argentinean writer Manuel Puig (1932-90) portrayed with singular mastery, based on his own land, a town named General Villegas. Its inhabitants never forgave him. However, a woman, owner of a painful and enigmatic past, will build a bridge between Coronel Vallejos, the town created by Puig, and the real General Villegas, trying to reconcile the place with the writer.


Coronel Vallejos es el nombre del pueblo donde Manuel Puig desarrolla la historia de sus novelas “La traición de Rita Hayworth” y “Boquitas pintadas”. Vallejos es una postal agria de cada pueblo de la pampa bonaerense que Puig retrató con singular maestría, basado en su propia tierra, General Villegas. Sus habitantes nunca se lo perdonaron. Quizás por ello el escritor nunca regresó. Sin embargo, una mujer lisiada que se desplaza en silla de ruedas, dueña de un pasado doloroso y enigmático, construirá un puente entre el Vallejos-Villegas de Puig, intentando reconciliar al lugar con el escritor.
