Synopsis:
A woman writes the story on the typewriter. During the process, the pages reveal another layer of reality, where another woman goes from one space to another, exploring the surroundings. At the same time, a third woman appears in another space, approaching the river and looking through the water’s flows. In that other layer, the previous woman appears, standing naked under the rain with her hands up to the sky. Three women refer to the Freudian three dimensions of our self: Id, ego, and superego. They are intricate and are part of one. Flows are related to the feminine nature and its transformative nature.
