From case cover:
"El Cuco", sobrenombre por el que era conocido el abuelo del protagonista (y también del director de la propia película), realizó un enigmático viaje desde Valladolid a Cádiz una vez finalizada la Guerra Civil. No tardó demasiado en regresar a su ciudad natal, negándose a dar explicaciones durante el resto de su vida de lo experimentado a lo largo de su periplo andaluz.
Empeñado en una lucha por desvelar los misterios de aquel viaje y reconstruir la memoria de su antepasado, Victor decide emprender su propia peregrinación al sur. Una búsqueda del mito de lo sublime. Una película sobre fronteras, entre el norte y el sur, la imaginación y la realidad, presente y pasado, abuelos y nietos, España y América, la lucidez y la locura ...
From IMDb:
La vida sublime tells the story of a grandson who finds the passion he seeks in the character of his dead grandfather, «El Cuco», and the trip his grandfather made as a youth to southern Spain in the early 1940s. A trip that should have remained a family mystery. The South and his grandfather open up a fascinating new world, a space in which a personal memory that immortalizes «El Cuco» can be created. A tribute by a grandson to the lost generation of the Franco dictatorship era, one which was not able to fulfill its dreams. A quest for the myth, and the sublime. A new writing of family history. A film that deals with the issue of borders. Borders between North and South, imagination and reality, present and past, grandfathers and grandsons, Spain and America, madness and lucidity.
