22 years encapsulated in a diary. David Vilaseca captured his day-to-day life on paper from 1987, when he was 23 years old and a young student on an American campus, until 2009, when he was 46 and shortly before he died. Now, Xavier Albertí directs the theatrical adaptation of this revealing novel that turns the self, fears, sex and other personal experiences into high-flying literature.
