Synopsis

Abril is the sole survivor of a tragedy. Her whole life was broken beyond repair in a single moment. She does not know how to carry the weight of having lived. She retreats to a small, bare apartment and to her piano, pouring herself into the keys as if music might hold what grief cannot. At first, she plays to survive; then she plays because there is nothing else. Her piano both rescues and condemns her. The two children who remain reach for their mother with everything they have; she slips, note by note, further away.

Sinopsis

Abril es la única sobreviviente de una tragedia que destruye su familia de una manera irreparable. No sabe cómo cargar con el peso de haber sobrevivido. Se refugia en un apartamento pequeño y desnudo, y en su piano, volcándose en las teclas como si la música pudiera contener lo que el duelo no puede. Al principio toca para sobrevivir; después toca porque no le queda nada más. Su piano la rescata y la condena a la vez. Sus dos hijos se aferran a ella con todo lo que tienen. Abril se aleja, nota a nota. Sus hijos se sienten impotentes y desconcertados.
