In a villa a family tries to refresh the memory of Antonio, who was injured in a car crash. Their primary motive is that he is the only person to know the secret number of a Swiss bank account. The family desperately attempts to remind him of traumatic events through shocking confrontations.
Intimate and political in equal measure, this dark comedy from the Spanish auteur Carlos Saura is a subtle allegory on a country at war with its past. Candidly ruminating on the very power of remembering, The Garden of Delights is a surreal tale where dream and reality strangely collide.
