- Delving into in the labyrinth of bureaucracy is a comic adventure.
  Great Expectations gives us a panoramic and almost tragic view of the processes of legitimation each person must go through in relation to the State, showing how our entire existence depends, from birth until death, on the Institution that organizes life in society and which appears here in its coercive and abstract form.
  And that’s only the tip of the iceberg.
