A collection of stories driven by rhythm, in which characters use music to face fear and mourning and to find strength amid love and longing. Jazz, a Latin ballad, hard heavy metal, a waltz from the Vienna New Year's concert, manele and Korean girl pop sound through them, along with heartbeats and running feet. In each story music offers a way to resist: to accept one's fate, to remain a child among adults, or to look for a home in another country.
