“La Moderna” welcomes a visit from artist Pablo Picasso. Actor Toni Zenet will portray the genius from Malaga in the daily drama that airs Monday through Friday at 16:30 on La 1 and RTVE Play.
In “La Moderna,” the famous painter, who is constantly in the spotlight, will turn to his friend César Morel to help him go unnoticed for a few days during a short stay in Madrid and ask him for a very personal favor. A favor that only someone with César’s contacts can possibly deliver and which will allow Picasso to recover the inspiration he needs to tackle one of his works.
