Diego is a troubled guy. He comes from a dysfunctional family. His father is a failed tenor, a heavy drinker who chooses to become a superficial man. His mother is a victimized woman, perennial depressed, oppressed by her sense of duty that kills her authenticity. Diego started off his life on the wrong foot, his fantasy is limitless but unfortunately his sense of decency and his feeling of shame as well.
Diego is tall and slender, bony and extremely shy, he is convinced to be weak-minded. Diego is an underachiever, he does poorly in school, in sport and lacks a social and romantic life. One day, after the umpteenth painful situation that confirms his inadequacy and alienation, he decides to make a final decision about his life: take it or leave it. Here starts Diego’s story.
