This is what Ariel's daily life looks like.
In the morning, he takes his half-sugar coffee from the shop owner, whose face is clouded with worry over this year's taxes. In the afternoon, he directs two employees as they photograph a scene, while they gripe about their salaries. In the evening, he attends banquets with several stars who earn millions a year but are constantly caught up in scandals.
The glittering lights in the mirror cannot reflect a single whole face.
The lofty talk over raised glasses is steeped in the stink of money and false maturity.
Then, that autumn, he found a beautiful butterfly.
