Umbra Viventis Lucis

Prostitute Roberta lives with her brother and demented mother in an Argentinian rural village. Mother warns Roberta that she can have sex with almost any man in the village, except one – because then she would be killed. However, this last candidate, Sicilio, has put his sights on her.

In this dark and futuristic story set in the Buenos Aires of 2068, a motorcycle courier is sent on a routine delivery to the Grupo Crinal television group, where he unknowingly stumbles upon a truth that will change his life forever. He discovers a labyrinthine world where nothing is what it seems, and a truth that he must accept to reclaim both his identity and that of Buenos Aires.
