\u00c1lvaro separates from his wife Amanda, an elated best-seller writer, and motivated by her success, makes up his mind to write a great novel. Problem is he lacks talent and imagination.

Manuel Mart\u00edn Cuenca is a Spanish film director. He directed more than ten films since 1990. <\/p>\n
In 2017, \u201cEl autor\u201d (The author) was nominated for the Goya Award for Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay. <\/p>\n
The Cervantes Institute is a worldwide non-profit organization created by the Spanish government in 1991. It is named after Miguel de Cervantes (1547\u20131616), the author of Don Quixote and perhaps the most important figure in the history of Spanish literature. <\/p>\n
The Cervantes Institute, a government agency, is the largest organization in the world responsible for promoting the study and the teaching of Spanish language and culture. <\/p>\n
This organization has branched out in over 44 different countries with 87 centers devoted to the Spanish and Hispanic American culture and Spanish Language. <\/p>\n
Article 3 of Law 7\/1991, created by the Instituto Cervantes on March 21, explains that the ultimate goals of the institute are to promote the education, the study and the use of Spanish universally as a second language to support the methods and activities that would help the process of Spanish language education, and to contribute to the advancement of the Spanish and Hispanic American cultures throughout non-Spanish-speaking countries. <\/p>\n
