Everything threatens to crack and yet this devouring march happened long ago in the past. There is no moaning in the room next door, the wind has stopped blowing on the stairs, the air particles throw themselves against each other, but it’s only void against void.

Hector's father was sick and died. His girlfriend left him for an older guy, went back to her parents house taking their eleven year old son to meet his new dad. Hector was drunk-stiff. He happened to be wearing a light-cavalry armour he borrowed from a paramedic he knew. There was a medieval party going on and the town was on fire.

All sympathetic magic is based upon two principles: the first called the Law of Similarity says that “likes produce likes,” or that an effect resembles its cause; the second, called the law of contagion or contact says that all things having been in contact with each other continue to react upon one and another at a distance even after they have been severed or disconnected. A fearful man meets a disquiet woman. Do you believe in magic?

Paulo works as night security in a deactivated industrial complex. He lost his daughter in dramatic circumstances, and no regrets would console him. He sleeps at Luisa's house and witnesses the repeated transgressions of an unstable neighbour. Everything threatens to crack.

It’s all natural phenomena. There’s no doubt about that. The tide turns in cycles. Water rots wood. Meteors may fall anytime, anywhere. It’s just rock burning in the atmosphere. Fishes die if they stay out of the water for too long. This process takes time and when it ends there’s no turning back. When one of these things does not take place something fundamental has changed. That’s when miracles happen.
