Once upon a time, I dreamed I was a butterfly...
Thoughts are spinning. An exhibition hall appears from the mist. Paintings, prints, and drawings are lining the walls. In front of a work by Escher, someone is stepping into the unknown. Suddenly, a new Universe comes to life. Questions are born and expand like a ball of fire. Who is that person? Is it me? Who am I? Where do I end and where does the world begin? Where does the world end and where do I begin? These are the last years of the 18th century. Alberto is a navy officer on Excelsior, a military brig involved mostly on sea-patrolling missions. Sometimes, troops and ammunition are also transported to far-away command posts. These trips are usually routine and uneventful. However, when the ship encounters a powerful storm, unusual things begin to happen. Alberto is soon swept into an unexpected journey of exploration and self-discovery that carries him through stranger and stranger realms. The new events transform him, distort his reality bubble, and change his world. Can the rational mind defy the irrational? Can love bring answers to previously unanswered questions? Does time always flow in the same direction? What is reality? What is the ego? A mirror reflecting itself. What would it show? A mirror reflecting another mirror. What would it see? Look inside the mirror, open the door, step onto the path stretching beyond its surface and you might find out. Are you ready? Available on: And now, a PRIZE for you!
