A washer, a barren space, distant, isolated.
And a cast that never ends.
On the other hand, a man adrift, never has a wash because they do not even know those clothes that do not have to walk very clean washing to be made over time not surprisingly uncomfortable with the smell unbearable.
Mar Gómez The company, true to form, tells dancing on the screen of a crooked smile, the story of a match and a mismatch, the vicissitudes of love awkward and out of place.
Heart Wash., built on the award-winning show Waning God, is a proposed format and the average length to outer space, which emphasizes the adequacy of its development to the environment in which it occurs.
A proposal narrative and highly visual, sprinkled with the characteristic sense of humor of the company, which aims for every action, tailored to your specific external environment, represents a unique and special reading.
