Plot. A country wakes up in a new day, a new year. Everything looks the same: the tram, roads, sidewalks, churches, television, newspaper kiosks. Everything, in short, in place. But one thing has changed, but one is enough to make this already incredible and unsurpassed in the New Year: no accidents caused by Pops New Year's Eve, no one who blew himself up a hand with a firecracker, no one who has reduced meatballs in his fingers. None.
transmissions tune dedicated special event, the newspapers are mourning the absence of news - because those who had prepared did not materialize. A country completely different one without an accident, a country no longer normal but completely renovated.
And a platitude like that then people realize that everything, even the most unimaginable things can break the norm and change. The people began to leave early from work to spend more time with his family and friends, spend more time with their hobbies, the economy slows, supermarkets close, they change all the rhythms of society, all by an unexploded firecracker.
But it will be gone really well, you ask the people? Or is it just another bale of cloth?
Then the entire society begins to look around, ask to see if anyone was really hurt during the celebrations of the first year. People from the beginning of a real investigation on a large scale, all to safeguard the objective truth of events. A large team of researchers looking for evidence of information. They run the whole country from north to south, from east to west, exchange information, results, creating a powerful network of contacts, and it seems that no one has actually blew up the phalanges.
Then jump off a child from a hospital. With a stump instead of the lower limb.
A victim of the festivities.
"It was actually a firecracker dud" ensures the child, still in shock.
"But then ... this changes everything ..." starts to think about the people. "I mean that nothing has changed. History is behind us."
"But look," says the child "You are changed."
Already, people have changed. How? Pursuing a shared goal, that of seeking the Truth? And all from a fact of daily life, a normal occurrence that has not happened this year as every year. People are incredulous
back to his life changed by new rhythms. It still does not understand how did he make change everything.
