Motivation
We live in a society full of prejudices, stereotypes and labels. Sometimes we are unfairly labeled by others. But there are cases, all too often, in which we ourselves we self-impose that distorted virtual image.
When we wake up in the morning, without knowing why and perhaps since when, we put on a corset that suffocates us, making us lose our way. That straitjacket is the visible consequence of a cause or problem. The one that unfortunately imprints on us a character by which we are cruelly pre-judged without having all the information.
Characters
Ricardo
Apparently normal and balanced 37-year-old young man, reserved, polite and hard-working. But lately, as a result of his separation and divorce proceedings, he finds himself immersed in an inevitable spiral of rage and hatred for everything that surrounds him. Ricardo has stopped paying attention to work and to himself.
Magdalena
Magdalena is a being straddling two worlds or realities. Affectionate and very sure of herself, real or unreal, Magdalena is the clear example of conscience. The one who accompanies us and guides us in our destiny.
Isabel
A 35-year-old woman from a wealthy family, attractive and slender. At present, she has already become Ricardo's ex-partner.
Isabel is a very tidy, patient and pleasant woman to deal with. Realistic and strict in her decision making. Sometimes it may seem that he has a bad temper, but he is not.
