What if he came back to life? this forgotten character asks himself in the depths of the mirror. In front of him, an actor has been aging dressing room by dressing room, covering up his intimate defeat, his worn-out illusions, the disappointment that darkens his days. So many things have died in him that life will not be long enough to forget them. But today he hears those voices inside the quicksilver and it is as if his soul has returned to his body. In this sterile present in which man does not seem to be up to his dreams, with his last strength, he will go out to radiate hope on stage.

Allied with his character, he will stir up the entrails of the theatre with his sieve, coming across its vices and virtues, and its humanity always. They will descend to hell, cross the mazes where bureaucrats store their tedium, avoid the pits that cover the red carpets of fame, illuminate the dark galleries where vulgarity bogs everything down, trying to free Segismundo from an alienating and prosaic reality, they will escape from the world and its jokes, making Clavileño a Pegasus. Once again, defying death and oblivion, they will seek the joy of reuniting with the theatre.

Manual para armar un sueño is a determined ode to hope that aims to shed light in the darkness of a world hostile to everything that escapes its commercialization. An infinite journey in history that, however, takes place in the short space between a dressing room and the stage. A dream as thin as the string of a kite that resists all kinds of storms.
