Jorge Luis Borges sits for extended interviews in Buenos Aires, reading from his own stories and poems while the camera follows him through the National Library he once directed despite going blind. The film opens with his short piece 'Borges y yo,' in which he splits himself into the private man and the public writer, a split that becomes the documentary's organizing idea. Critics, translators, and friends discuss his fascination with labyrinths, mirrors, infinite libraries, and doubled identities, tracing how a life spent mostly among books produced fiction that keeps folding back on itself. Archival photographs and footage of Buenos Aires streets and cafes place him in the city that shaped his imagery, while Borges himself talks through his influences, from Cervantes to English literature, and his complicated relationship with fame in a country that claimed him as a national figure. The result is a plain, interview-driven portrait built around Borges's own words rather than outside analysis, letting his ideas about identity and infinity carry the film.
