What it's about
An unknown man in an unnamed city stands precariously on the ledge of the terrace of his building on the night of the festival of lights. He is ready to jump. He looks down. Hundreds, maybe thousands, have gathered to watch. Will he do it? At the edge of sanity and magic realism lies a contemporary urban fable about a reluctant Messiah and the wildly dangerous love of his life.
