The story
He weaves the characters into a narrative meant to comfort Valentin and distract him from the harsh realities of political imprisonment and separation from his lover, Marta.
Despite Valentin's occasionally snapping at Molina over his shallow views of film-watching and unrealistic romance, an unlikely friendship develops between the two.
Molina has apparently been promised parole if he succeeds in obtaining information that will allow the secret police to break up the revolutionary group.
