Narra una serie de reencuentros en la vida de Salvador Mallo, un director de cine en su ocaso. Algunos de ellos físicos, y otros recordados, como su infancia en los años 60, cuando emigró con sus padres a Paterna, un pueblo de Valencia, en busca de prosperidad, así como el primer deseo, su primer amor adulto ya en el Madrid de los 80, el dolor de la ruptura de este amor cuando todavía estaba vivo y palpitante, la escritura como única terapia para olvidar lo inolvidable, el temprano descubrimiento del cine, y el vacío, el inconmensurable vacío ante la imposibilidad de seguir rodando. "Dolor y Gloria" habla de la creación, de la dificultad de separarla de la propia vida y de las pasiones que le dan sentido y esperanza. En la recuperación de su pasado, Salvador encuentra la necesidad urgente de volver a escribir (FILMAFFINITY).
