«The thick walls that separate the past from the present are crumbling, but she doesn’t know it yet. She’s just working at the museum, retouching yet another canvas, trying not to go out of her mind with boredom. Putting down her brush—just a short break, she thinks—she heads to the gallery to take another look at that new drawing, the one she can’t stop thinking about, the one of the Hindu god Shiva, who dances … That’s when it all begins.
