Synopsis:
A gallery of characters lost in their sexual identity. Passages of their lives; how they try to adapt and the problems that society and themselves pose. Everything is told by a narrator who tries to be neutral but cannot achieve it. She has the need of intervening, and symbolizes Time passing, dragging them to the most absolute loneliness, to the most devastating old age. The story of a drunkard in a bar terrace and the boy who thinks he has fallen in love with him. A betrayal marks a separation, a farewell. Discovering that your parents can hide the same secrets one thinks he would never discover in the most sordid way. The desolation of sex with nothing in return, not even a name to remember. And Hope as a mere witness, kept back by time, by the no-action, fighting to give them the opportunity that life denies them. The gathering of them all in a very special yard; the yard of the insulted ones, of those who had nothing more than a stereotype, a mark which is applied but never erased.
