Joselito and his father had decided not to participate in it this year, the mother´s death has isolated them from the town. Father and son can`t connect to each other. Only the fire of the kitchen wood oven makes them closer and makes warmer the place, but the inner coldness is still higher. The day of religious procession comes closer, a tragic end is unavoidable.
