The Delights of the Garden
Fermín, a veteran painter at the twilight of his career, has begun to feel his hand tremble. On the brink of financial ruin, he is forced to move into the studio he shares with his friend Javier de Juan in an old garage. There, his son Pablo, also a painter returns from a long trip to India to live with him. Their opposing perspectives on art and life quickly bring them into conflict. Pepa, Pablo’s mother and Fermín’s ex, proposes a solution: they enter a competition to reinterpret The Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch, which could help resolve their financial troubles.
