Project Title: Room#2 / Habitación#2

Brief Synopsis: A man with a severe addiction to reading—or in other words, to inhabiting realities different from his own— suddenly runs out of stories to consume and collapses within himself when forced to face his own reality. He ends up trapped in a space ruled by two sides of his subconscious: his addiction (disguised as an immaculate version of himself) and his creativity (a simple, surly typewriter). Guided involuntarily by his creativity, he confronts himself, journeying through the darkest corners of his being, his trauma, and the source of his addiction. Until, at last, he destroys everything— including the supposed typewriter that controls him— and emerges back into his reality, deciding for the first time to live his own story instead of reading others.
