synopsis

A number of boys, about 12/13 years old, are stuck in a dark, shadowy box from which they emerge to find that they are surrounded by many rooms, in which they each see their personalities again. They all manage to choose the right room for themselves, except for one boy who feels burdened by the obligation of having to make a decision. This pressure covers him with fears, as if they were clothes that conceal his being more and more, and makes him shut down more and more. His friends would like him too to be able to find his identity, but the boy is convinced of the choice not to choose, to remain alone and wait for the future that will help him decide who to be and how.
