OPERA OF A JOURNEY
Our survival instinct molds memories, crafting a narrative that gives coherence to our lives. In this way, we persuade ourselves that existence holds some meaning.
From an interview with Pere Parera
...
The realisation that
the percentage of truth surviving the manipulation of memories is marginal marks the starting point of Mariel's journey to reclaim the life that has slipped away. All that remains are unreliable memories and a manuscript.
The journey through
the Alps, Paris, and finally England will help her break down the false self she has become. Along the way, she will try to connect with those who could aid her in reshaping the balance between reality and fantasy, two opposing yet necessarily contrived creations that she must learn to assimilate without filtering or processing in order to reconstruct her true self.
