A journey through home life where hope hangs by a tangle of fine and fragile threads.
A document of insecurity coming to rest on distinctly shaky ground.
An 8 minute video in which few answers are supplied, but much meaning is gathered along the way.

“The best magicians make their tricks look as natural as walking and as simple to learn as tying your shoes. Paul Tarragó is such a magician, here juggling household mysteries: that fly in the shower, the cinema-historical significance of an old western, and the way everything in the kitchen rotates without aid of hands. He does not distract or divert attention and makes it easy to keep your eye on the ball, but watch for that wry, confidential smile as each ball simply disappears.”
