Synopsis: PAIN AND GLORY tells of a series of reencounters experienced by Salvador Mallo, a film director in his physical decline.

Pain and Glory talks about creation, about the difficulty of separating it from one’s own life and about the passions that give it meaning and hope. In recovering his past, Salvador finds the urgent need to recount it, and in that need he also finds his salvation.e as past and present come crashing down around him.
