Ese es el último deseo que Caco (un vividor que abandonó a su familia hace 9 años) expresa a Pedro, Meche y Roberto, sus hijos, mientras contempla su último día de vida en un hospital de Valparaíso, ciudad portuaria chilena. Los hijos no sospechan que ese viejo divertido, alegre y excéntrico va a hacer todo lo posible para reunir a su familia; aún cuando ello le quite la vida. (+)
Synopsis: “Boys, please take me out of here”(Caco). This seems to be the last wish that Caco- a scrounging man who abandoned his family 9 years ago- asks to Pedro, Meche and Roberto, his children, while he spends his last day of life at a hospital in Valparaíso. Them, next to Maite, Pedro´s second wife, do not suspect that the funny, happy and eccentric old man is speaking seriously this time and that he is willing to do anything to escape with his family, even at his own life´s expense. A beautiful story, full of common life details and black humour, that shows us that there is always a last chance to reconnect with the ones we love. (+)
