El Director es un retrato íntimo de las encrucijadas éticas, las relaciones personales, las amistades y deslealtades que se viven cuando se ocupa el despacho de uno de los grandes diarios del país.

Jiménez destapa aquí la podrida xarxa de pressions i influències que s'estableix entre els grups de poder econòmic i polític, i la premsa que suposadament ha de vigilar els dos primers. El director és un relat únic sobre com funciona el joc de favors entre els mitjans i l’elit d’un país, i quin preu paguen els que es neguen a participar-hi.
