Jorge Herralde

A writer's career — and entire life — suddenly goes off script when he falls prey to a dangerous web of criminals right before moving to Barcelona.

Booklovers is a series about the bookish dimension of some of the most cultural cities in the world. With the guide of the writer Jorge Carrión, in each chapter we visit emblematic bookstores, libraries and cultural spaces in metropolises such as Mexico City, Barcelona, Lisbon, Buenos Aires or Madrid, to better understand them through their relationship with books and literature.

A drug has been discovered, Liberxina 90, which will erase "establishment" conditioning from the human mind. It has fallen into the hands of some diversely anarchistic revolutionaries who spend most of the film discussing how and whether to use it; should they wait for the forces of "history" to undermine society or speed things up using the drug? They are finally forced into action by the police who are, somewhat ineptly, hunting them down.
