Talisman – Magic – Immortality – Love – Redemption
This suspenseful story, which combines elements of legend, detective novel and fantasy, successfully inter-weaves the realistic and the fantastic, now and yesterday, Spain and China. 14-year-old Víctor works part-time as a delivery boy at a Chinese restaurant where he falls in love with Li Bei, who is two years his junior. When the girl suddenly disappears, and two shady characters show up who are on her trail, Víctor discovers little by little the details of an unbelievable story. A mysterious amulet and an artfully ornamented dagger are the keys to a secret about love and hate, but above all about immortality, which is no dream here, but rather a curse only to be overcome in the end. (12+)
