Beloved Nobel Prize winning poet Pablo Neruda is also the most famous communist in post-WWII Chile.

When the political tides shift, he is forced underground, with a tenacious police inspector (Gael García Bernal) hot on his trail.

“It reminds us that movies, by their very nature, owe far more to poetry than they ever will to the novel.”  – New Yorker

“As in all his movies, Larrain is an expert juggler of tones: by turns antic and lyrical, Neruda is shot with a dark, nocturnal beauty and a mournful orchestral score.”  –  NPR

“Not a biopic but a Nerudian take on the famed Chilean politician-poet, “Neruda” is a stunningly inventive take on the function rather than the life of a writer.”  – Variety
