The main heroes are the hands of the author or a spectator. The right hand is a man and the left (wrong) is the devil. Devil offers three eternal human wishes: Passion, Power, and Knowledge. The HAND is a symbol of human creativity, and the SHADOW is a very deep poetical, magical and metaphysical phenomenon. The hands are creators, but the shadows carry the characters and emotions.
