“11:33 pm. We are in an apartment, like any other, inhabited by a young girl. 11:36 pm. A door opens. 10 bodies suddenly enter the room. They start to dance. They inhabit that space as if it were their own. 11:37 pm The young girl heads to the living room, shocked and panicked. She doesn’t understand what those strangers are doing in her house. How did they get in? What do they want? She tries to kick them out, but is ignored. 00:00 am. A nightmare begins that will persist; A hereditary tragedy. Looking for answers as to why so much shit happens to us.”
