Visual concept:
Dark streets and artificial colors changing with the syncopated and monochord rhythm of the street music. The camera following the motorcycle of our protagonists with the city lights reflected in their helmets, the police sirens that threaten, a slow transit to the end of the night. The story of a tragic betrayal that is not a surprise, and where the love-hate relationship of the characters tinges the story with the longing for a farewell and the urgency of an escape.
