Aurora - The street that wanted to be a river

If the streets could talk, what would they say?
Aurora is a sad and lonely street of a big city. On a rainy day, she remembers her trajectory and dreams about the future asking herself: is it possible for a street to die?

Se as ruas pudessem falar, o que diriam?
Aurora é uma triste e solitária rua de uma grande cidade. Em um dia de chuva forte, ela relembra sua trajetória e sonha com o futuro e se pergunta: é possível uma rua morrer?
