Alone
Castaway of land lost on wooded hills, reaches with great difficulty towards town only to discover a merciless truth.
A survivor in search of humanity, understood as an inner state, as an emotion and with empathy. Loneliness hurts and the need to be part of a group becomes a vital necessity. Alone, hungry and thirsty, desperate for a better life. But the society is too careful, too selfish and too concerned with its own feelings and problems. The despair of others is just a nuisance to be extinguished with one click.
