Daniel Sánchez Arévalo
Azul oscuro casi negro is a story about people who fight against their destiny, against what is supposedly “written in the stars”. Characters trapped on the other side of a glass panel, a glass so fine that is barely noticeable, nearly invisible but impossible to ignore. A glass panel that separates them from their dreams, something they run into constantly and that they forget about daily, as easily as a small sweet water fish forgets it’s in a tank. The characters are people unable to discern between what they want and what they need; people who have a hard time giving things up – who want everything – yet who, little by little, must learn to stop resisting, to stop playing against all odds, not as an indication of compliance but just the opposite. They must learn to accept their own limitations in order to advance – slowly. So that they will end up in a place completely different of the one they dreamed of, but alike or maybe more cozy and pleasant.
