Synopsis "El Penúltimo Sueño (Colección Especial 2016) (in Spanish)"

El penúltimo sueño es el relato de un intenso primer amor que lo tiene todo en contra. Joan Dolgut y Soledad Urdaneta representan en la Europa de entreguerras su particular Romeo y Julieta. Joan, huido de España al término de la Guerra Civil, trabaja como camarero en un lujoso hotel de Cannes; Soledad es la bellísima hija de un millonario colombiano asentado en el hotel temporalmente. Aunque a Joan le está prohibido siquiera mirar a tan especial huésped, el joven ya ha caído prendado de ella. Gracias a su destreza al piano podrá acceder a su intocable princesa, aunque los convencionalismos de la época rápidamente truncarán el sueño de amor eterno. Sus vidas se convertirán en un permanente y dilatado sueño inacabado que sólo despertará al término de sus vidas, con un sorprendente final.
