Tamayo knows he needs to change the person he has become under the pressure of his parents’ expectations. His opposition manifests itself on the quest to formally have his name struck from the Catholic Church’s baptismal record. But finding his own path is hard and it seems helpful to turn his feelings into words. With the sincerity of someone addressing letters to a friend overseas, he goes over the weaknesses and little miseries that his family passed on to him. As Tamayo’s correspondence revisits his tempestuous past, his wild and tender gaze on the scenery of Madrid reveals his beliefs, desires and turmoil.
