Angel Santiago, the ambitious young dreamer, and Bergara Gray, the famous and experienced thief, benefit from a general presidential pardon and are released from prison on the same day.
Santiago seeks revenge for his past and the harsh prison experience, with a major theft that he hopes will build a new future for him, and he helps him carry it out after Gray hesitates, who only seeks to restore his previous life.
Their adventure intersects with Victoria, a school student who dreams of being a ballet dancer despite all the circumstances she suffers from.
In his award-winning novel, Planeta, Scarmetta tells a warm, emotional story about three people united by love, friendship, and hope for a better future, in a country still living in the shadows of a defunct dictatorship.
What happens when we die? Is there a second life after death? Why does everyone talk in their dying moments about a tunnel of light at the end?
Can insects read? What does a Tibetan monk do in a high school? Was Newton just a mathematician? How do we save the world?
And most important of all, does she reciprocate his admiration?
Many important questions that need to be answered, and who is more capable of doing that than a high school student who believes that he is the best musician in the world, and with a little help from his coffee-loving grandfather (even if he is dead... a little).
