One day, a child sits quietly and attentively in a dilapidated apartment building. A fan gently stirs the air as the child plays with a Rubik's cube, its colorful faces sparkling in the fading light. With delicate movements, the child crosses streets and alleys, discovering hidden possibilities. Despite the threat of decay, small moments full of play, wonder, and hope arise, nourishing creativity. A delicate contrast to the faceless world of adults and the impending collapse that threatens to engulf everything.
