Summary: 
What do a group of Patagonian suicides, a Malambo dancer, a great US writer, a distinguished pianist and a former guerrilla fighter have in common?
What makes a life worthy to tell? How is it pursued and reached? What are the methods, secrets and tricks to research it and put it down in writing? Where are the limits to reality when trying to narrate and organise something which happened? When do you hear the vocation call that immediately becomes chronic, and what should be done with it afterwards?
Leila Guerriero -who masters the journalistic front and profile as a great literary genre- converses with writer Rodrigo Fresán about the how, when and why of his art and profession, likewise the manners and ways in which he lives and co-exists to narrate them.
