Sinopsis/ Synopsis
Ausencio Paredes is a little grey man who works at a newspaper printing house. The story takes place on his 25th anniversary as linotypist. Opressed by the mechanical monotony of his work, despised by his family and his colleagues, Paredes finds relief in his fantasies, where he is a hero. So his day passes, fluctuating between reality and fantasy until his thoughts merge into the news headlines.
