Centuries later, his love octaves dedicated to his beloved Celia are brought back to the public through live musical compositions, interspersed with excerpts from the correspondence between Veneziano and Miguel de Cervantes, whose friendship began during their years of imprisonment in Algiers, where they shared a cell.
