Tell the story of Copi, a father who tries to teach his son, Paste, the right way. Set in a gloomy and colorless city where neither the environment nor the inhabitants are creative. Desaturated colors are used to depict the characters' changes as well as the city's alienation, which contrasts with the saturated colors used for the green, small park where the violinist is located and the children's drawings, which represent creativity.
