Manifiesto Fiesta is a short documentary that explores and deconstructs the dominant notion of celebration. Through voice-over narration, archival footage, and recordings of electronic, Christian, and patriotic parties, it reveals festivity as an ancestral pulse of the human experience. What once seemed like an escape is unveiled as a return — a journey back to the shared origin of our species.

His teachers, coaches, childhood friends and Barça teammates, together with journalists, writers and prominent figures from the history of football, come together in a restaurant to analyze and pick apart Messi's personality both on and off the field, and to look back at some of the most significant moments in his life. Viewed from Álex de la Iglesia's unique perspective, Messi recreates the player's childhood and teenage years, from his very first steps, with a football always at his feet, through to the decision to leave Rosario for Barcelona, the separation from his family, and the role played in his career by individuals such as Ronaldinho, Rijkaard, Rexach and Guardiola.
