This short has a very interesting symbolic force, it strongly transmits the dynamics into which sin introduces us. It is no coincidence that the mysterious paper has a black hole drawn inside, and sin is a spiral that consumes us from the inside. At the beginning it is experienced as a false sensation of freedom but little by little, like all realities that do not fulfill in themselves, it asks us for stronger doses, bigger steps, so many other “sensations” of power that end up making us abdicate to the throne of our will. What is the conclusion? An empty safe, locked with us inside. What is the great irony? In this black hole you won't even be able to enjoy the value you coveted, the money is out!
