The Chilean director Pablo Larrain gives the impression of aspiring to intellectual curiosity, political engagement, and committed anti-triviality.

Vi accepterer og fascineres af det ulogiske og de tilsyneladende urimeligheder, medens vi med Neruda og hustruen Delia føres gennem Chiles skønne landskaber og kreative miljøer.

’Neruda’ bliver aldrig en forfølgelsesfilm, et historisk drama eller en traditionel biopic. Filmen er snarere en sælsom blanding af det hele, hvor Pablo Neruda som menneske og myte væves sammen i en gådefuld mosaik.
