Juan Pablo Castel, a renowned painter who now lives behind bars for being guilty of the murder of Maria Iribarne, in this leisure place, makes he think about writing a book, where he will relate the facts of the murder, without explanation, just tell the facts, although the explanations are what drive the interest of the people, but that does not care, because he has always had to explain his thoughts, judgments and ideas, seeks to justify each of them. Like his hatred of art critics, although they admire, rather, because they admire.

No one achieves understand, Castel keeping the hope that there are at least one person who achieve understands, of the thousands who will read the book, at least one. Because once there was one, and it was precisely whom he killed.

Everyone knows the fact that death, but nobody knows how they met and much less the things which they lived. It was in an exhibition of his paintings, one of them kept a secret, an image that everyone overlooked, was in a corner of the work, Maternity, and he watched intently as everyone didn´t see, only she, Maria saw the image and was like they looked they.

Since then he became convinced that they were kindred spirits because they had come to understand the image, and he spent months, imagining ways to find and hold a conversation casually what take them to give explanation to the image what that day took sense.
