Gabo: The Creation of Gabriel Garcia Marquez
How did a boy from a backward town on the Caribbean coast become a writer who won the hearts of millions, from the poorest to the most powerful political leaders, and whose works changed our perception of reality? The answer is the incredible story of Gabriel García Márquez – ‘Gabo’ to all of Latin America – winner of the 1982 Nobel Prize for Literature, author of the globally popular masterpiece ‘100 Years of Solitude’, and ‘the most popular and perhaps the best writer in Spanish since Cervantes’. More than just a biography, this film is a powerful narrative following the interwoven threads of Márquez’s life and work to reveal the incredible power of human imagination.
