Years of upheaval, years of compensation, in a provincial town. A town built with passion and humanity. Yet everything is being dismantled. The city is changing shape, taking on the appearance of an ugly concrete beast. A shadow of fear looms over it.
Social and economic transformations, new bosses, new labor force, a harsh struggle between the old and the new, whose outcome History has unilaterally defined. Everyday people, tormented, permanent or transient.
A tender story in a sorrowful life, a story as beautiful as the sun that suddenly lights up the moldy winter. Like the hope of humanity, residing at the great crossroads of History, where the dice are cast on the table of the sky with grafted dice.
Language as pure as the bread of the laborer, genuine feelings, strong and authentic characters, like the granite rock that silently bears the weight of the city for centuries. A soft cry of rain, insisting on disturbing the tranquility of the sated, complacent man.
