Como sobreviviente del accidente, el nino, que viajaba con su padre, es encontrado por un matrimonio que inicia su proceso de adopcion y durante muchos anos le ocultan su verdadera identidad por el egoismo de no perder su carino. Con el correr de los anos su madre adoptiva antes de morir le confiesa que el fue un nino adoptado y le da algunas pistas para que pueda encontrar su verdadera identidad e ir a la busqueda de su madre biologica y sus raices.. Un amor sublime y apasionado surgido en las tinieblas de este conflicto se ve en peligro de sucumbir ante la incertidumbre de sus personajes envueltos en un inaudito silencio que, solo una confesion inesperada, logra romper.

Dramatic Interactions in Education draws together contemporary sociocultural research across drama and educational contents to draw out implications for researchers and practitioners both within and outside the field. Drama is a field for which human interactions, experience, emotional expression, and attitude are central, with those in non-arts fields discovering that understandings emerging from drama education can provide models and means for examining the affective and relational domains which are essential for understanding learning processes. In addition to this, those in the realm of drama education and applied theatre are realising that sociocultural and historical-cultural approaches can usefully inform their research and practice. Leading international theorists and researchers from across the UK, Europe, USA and Australia combine theoretical discussions, research methodologies, accounts of research and applications in classroom and learning contexts, as they explore concepts from Vygotsky's foundational work and interrogate key concepts such as perezhivanie (or the emotional, lived experience), development of self, zone of proximal development.
