Kastanioti Three Eighteen

From one end of the earth to the other, heroes bound together by the shackles of a difficult coming of age. They all look like members of one huge dysfunctional family. They live in homes or institutions threatened by their very building materials. Thrown into the world, they measure themselves in front of critical personal decisions or social changes. Chasing their dreams, they shatter their illusions from a combustible past, their present becomes a melting pot for their open issues and paints their future with the colors of worry. Only a sacrifice or a miracle can unlock the prisons in which they trap themselves or trap others. Usually – moments before all is lost – an act of courage, love or atonement leads to the next life story, mysteriously (318) connected to the previous one with equal anguish. Loyalty is earned with many losses and with an act that transcends human selfishness.
