THE BLACK BOX
A CAIXA NEGRA
Black Box is a trip from darkness to light, from silence to sound, from solitude to friendship. Ana is 6 years old and spends most of her time locked in the basement with her toys and a strange box that hypnotises her with fabulous imagens and sounds. One ay Ana breaks that spell and discovers a friend to play with, beyond the box.
