SYNOPSIS The memory of the poet Vicente Aleixandre beats in silence on 3 Velintonia street, Madrid. The house of this Nobel Prize for Literature, in which he spent his time with much of the Generation of 27 (Lorca, Cernuda, Miguel Hernández...) and, after the civil war, much of the future authors of Spanish literature of the twentieth century, is abandoned and for sale. This documentary reconstructs its history and recovers its spirit
