The swede Pre-production / Fiction
1898, a young swede naturalist, Erik Hjalmar, arrives in Central America searching for some species of bird. He comes in the midst of a coup d’état and is imprisoned. Fourteen years later, the president, and at the same time dictator of the country, summons him to translate a peculiar letter written by Selma, a young Swedish woman. From that moment on, Erik has fed with false translations the interest of the president in his fellow countrywoman and that is how he has turned into a person of confidence. Erik is now trapped in the lie and even then he influences the fate of many people, although not his own. Selma unexpectedly arrives in the country and her presence will change the fate of both men. In the midst of a country devastated by a new coup d’état, Erik will have to decide the new course of his life.
