Synopsis

It all could have started on a dance floor but it started on a race track. Running to be accepted, to be big, especially when we feel small. What to do when we are in a crowd? Who are we? How should we act? What do we show? Each character has a unique story, with fears, anxieties, intense feelings, difficult sensations, indecisions, dilemmas, failures, joys, dreams... They all consider themselves different from each other and have their internal world populated by creatures that shame does not allow show. Everyone realizes that difference is not a sign of division and distancing. If they get to know each other, show themselves, share experiences, it will reveal that the path of tolerance does not only improve the lives of those who are suffering, but of the entire community. The good of each is the good of all.
