SYNOPSIS

Prince or imposter? The impossible story of the last descendent of Moctezuma. In the 16th century, one of Moctezuma's daughters was abducted by a Spanish nobleman and taken to a remote Pyrenean village, where she gives birth to a boy and begins the insane line that will come to an end in the 21st century. Fascinated by this, the narrator uncovers the unlikely but true story of Kiko Grau, a descent of the boy born to an Aztec princess and a member of the Barcelona upper middle class. Witth a mixture of delirium, guile and the historical responsibility imposed on him by his lineage, Kiko Grau presented himself as an Imperial Highness and set out to con any pretentious, well-heeled bourgeois in search of aristocratic titles. Grau finally had to flee Spain and settle in an obscure town in the Mexican jungles, whose inhabitants are the only people to recognise his links to pre-Hispanic royalty.
