Solar plot

In 1991 Flavio Cabobianco published his book 'I Come from the Sun'. He was 10 years old and described himself as a messenger from other planets. The book became a bestseller in Argentina and was translated into six languages. The media turned Flavio into a New Age phenomenon. Twenty years later, Flavio decides to republish his book and agrees to participate in a documentary about his story. After a year of shooting, Flavio, unhappy with the film's predetermined roles, comes up with the idea of switching roles between himself and the director. If his demand is not met, he will leave the film. Flavio's interrogation leads to a change in the course of action: 'Solar' is no longer a film about Flavio and his family, but a power struggle between director and subject.
