Plot[]
 | This article needs a plot summary. (October 2015) |
A series of Vignettes that begin at the Civil War and end at the Spanish Economic Miracle is interwoven with 2 separate abstractions
- Seeking a Utopia in the Gilbert Islands
- A possible escape from the Social order to El "otro lado"
In Vignete 1 The train which is apparently going to Vizcaya? offers a possible escape route (to France?) In Vignette 2 We see an escape from the Oppressive Social Services that want the change a family (from being hunter gatherers) to fit back into the state sponsored social order. Vignette 3 Focuses on a schoolroom in the 1950s and suggests that one can learn more from daydreaming than following the dry logic of the schoolmaster Vignette 4 at a Rapid Driving School perhaps makes fun of a girl who only looks at the inside of a vehicle and gets a rude awakening when she glimpse the outside of the car Vignete 5 Deals with graffiti removal where the technicians have to think long and loud about the political meanings to choose which graffiti they will remove and which they will allow.
