February 1939. Overwhelmed by the flood of Republicans fleeing Franco's dictatorship, the French government's solution consists in confining the Spanish refugees in concentration camps where they have no other choice than to build their own shelters, feed off the horses which have carried them out of their country, and die by the hundred for lack of hygiene and water... In one of these camps, two men, separated by barbwire, will become friends. One is a guard the other is Josep Bartoli (Barcelona 1910 - New York 1995), a cartoonist who fights against the Franco regime.

Picasso in Royan

Picasso in Royan 1970

1

1939: France decrees general mobilization. Labeled a degenerate artist, Pablo Picasso takes refuge in Royan, where Maya, his daughter, and Marie-Thérèse Walter, his companion, are staying. He is accompanied by his secretary Jaime Sabartes and also by the captivating Dora Maar. Within this setting of peace and light, surrounded by friends and family, Picasso is soon seduced by this laid-back lifestyle. This apparent tranquility is perhaps only a false pretense... In the privacy of his studio, the artist is visited by monsters, reminding him of the threat of imminent danger. Confronted with dark forces, the artist cannot escape forever and has to face his truth and the truth of the world.
