    • Synopsis
    • Ray (Andrés Almeida) and Ramona (Jessy Bulbo) are a young couple, unhappy with the injustices of the society they live in. Each forms their own niche – Ramona as a musician, Ray as an activist. Together they try to fight for a more just world. Devoted to self-sabotage, Ray fails in his rebellion, dragging Ramona into a downward spiral that culminates in an act of poetic terrorism.
      Spanish:
      Ray y Ramona están en sus 30. Odian la injusticia del contexto social del que son parte. Cada uno desde su nicho — la música y el activismo — quieren luchar por un mundo más justo. Entregado al autosabotaje, Ray fracasa en su rebeldía y arrastra a Ramona en una espiral descendente que culmina con un acto poético-terrorista.
