Plot

There's a longing gavel's echo banging in the mind of the audience that is suddenly threw in a story that seems both anonymous and special at the same time. There' s a man awaken, sitting on his pallet, breathing fast and suffering. Here's the beginning of a short story of a very common, barely incolore existence, with a unique, biggest shade: he's going to die. Better said, he's going to be killed by other men that decided day and place of his death. "Every man has on his own a death sentence, with unlimited delays.", says that man, locked up with his tormenting thoughts since a lifetime or maybe a few moments, so far away from his previous life, so close to madness. Obsessed by countless ghosts and apparitions, made up by his mind that has been driven insane, he sees happy moments that come from his past, which now seems to him so cruel and hurting: every a little, pale ray of sunshine can bring some illusionary hope that suddenly turns into despair. But nothing can be so stabbing as his family's ghosts: his brown-eyed daughter will be the symbol of his pain and misery, at least unbearable. A lighting will finally appear to the man: this time, however, there will be no ghosts, no obsessions created by his mind. It's just the door cell's opening. His time has come. Now that his fate is so clear, and there's no room for other dreaming or illusions; now that he understands that freedom is just over latest pain and light is hidden into the darkness, there's only one last breath to use, just to say " Give me pardon! Please! Five minutes more!".
