Synopsis: Ash columns that insist on standing. A bleak area and a woman’s useless efforts to not fall apart.
Action is the only way she has to break the husk of impotence, trying to restore time in pillars of the past. As a result, her energy gets dispersed and condensed again, into a poetry that no one can hear and no one can see.
Nothing continues.
