In one of those yellow buses in Curitiba, a possible love story unfolds between any two girls. If we disregard who they really are and put a filter on all the scenes, they look like they came out of a movie! The story is told in fragments seen from the outside. The narrator, who routinely takes the bus with the characters, is an anonymous, witty, and full of references. Very observant and especially creative. All we know are the small gestures and words captured here and there: the rest are her fantasies. But what does it matter? In the end, the result is the same.

More or less your typical teenage romance story between neighbors (or neighbors). With paganism, dysfunctional families and a portrait of teenage growth, however. Sexuality, spirituality, the perception of oneself in the world and how the cracks formed in childhood permeate all this. I try, at least.

“Later that day, I threw up. A small wing came out, white and delicate, torn apart in the midst of my half-digested lunch. After the vomiting, nervous laughter and cold sweat dominated my days. I searched in vain for the disease that could give me these symptoms and the cause remained unknown. Malaria, dengue?” A tale about passion, butterflies in the belly and how they end.

A drop of blood fell into her father's grave. Angels and demons came to fetch it. On a morning of eclipse, the sun and the moon meet over Kaldvik, in the frozen north of Andronor. In the afternoon, Aldara climbs the slope to leave blue thistle on her father's grave. A thorn pierces her finger. A drop falls to the earth. Down below, in the Umbra, a demonic lord sees the glow of that blood and recognizes what the gods had deemed extinct. The eclipse made the veil between the worlds thin. The demons rise. From the Splendor the angels descend. In the midst of the fight, Roriel, commander of the phalanx, saves Aldara and closes the wound on her shoulder with a sung word. Then Árcon, god of justice and light, gives the sentence: the mortal must die. The one who descends to carry it out is Roriel, alone. Angels do not know how to disobey. Roriel finds the only way not to kill her. He tears off his own wings. Without light and without flight, in a body that now feels cold and hunger, he flees with Aldara to the Mountain of White Silence. There the two raise a house, and he learns to live as a man. But the sky has not forgotten the order, and in the Umbra the lord who saw that glow keeps waiting.

In the year 3075, humanity has achieved extraordinary technological advances. Machines coexist with people, cities are dominated by gigantic corporations, and technology is capable of replacing almost any part of the human body. But not even a thousand years of progress were enough to build a better world. While the richest live surrounded by privileges, millions of people survive in a society marked by inequality, violence, and corruption. It is in this world that Nia lives, a domestic robot who works in the residence of an elderly businessman. Her existence is simple: clean, organize, and carry out the tasks for which she was programmed. At least it should be. In a city where everything has a price, a police officer tries to find his place within a corrupt system, while a woman connected to the criminal underworld does what is necessary to survive. Three distinct lives, in a society that seems to have forgotten the meaning of humanity. In a world where machines become increasingly human, what remains of humanity in people?
