Ballet in four scenes or “dreamscapes”:
Primer paisaje. Encounter with her childhood. The anguish she feels at the slowness of time separating her from Love.
Segundo paisaje. Contact with the Other, the sharpening of the senses.
Tercer paisaje. Her adolescence. The search for the Beloved through the human forest, and the anguish of drought, loss, purpose and doubt.
Cuarto paisaje. Encounter with Love, naked and free from all restriction, and its abandonment because her thirst for the infinite cannot be quenched. It ends with the ascent towards the contemplation of her purpose.
