Description

Lost in life, the young protagonists Sara and Matías spend their days drifting and challenging the stability of their comfortable existences. They question the conventions of society with their precocious intellects, their last bastion of defense against what they view as a banal world. Thus, suicide appears hand-in-hand with the vertigo of their lives as the ultimate answer to their growing disappointment. Extraviados frente a la vida, Sara y Matías, los jóvenes protagonistas pasan sus días a la deriva, desafiando la estabilidad de sus acomodadas vidas y las convenciones de una sociedad ajena ante la que se sobreponen haciendo uso de una abrumadora y pretenciosa intelectualidad. Entendiéndola quizá como su última línea de defensa frente al vacío de un mundo y banal. De esta manera, el suicidio, imaginario recurrente de la literatura romántica, aparece de la mano de la vertiginosa precocidad de sus vidas como último recurso ante su creciente desengaño frente a la vida.
