Because to lose is... to gain a little
While abroad Colombians are the bad guys, in Colombia foreigners are the kings. And Vigo, a Swede who arrives to Colombia, will be no exception: he will be received as a prodigal son. He will soon discover that even with so much human warmth, in the country of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, magical realism is lived in the midst of chaos, impetus and thoughtlessness, which between tears and laughter blurs the fine line between good and evil.
