A group of young people dance and drink at a house. The atmosphereis festive andcheerful. Socialistvictory in the general elections of 1982 seems recent. The night isfull of euphoria and celebration. The attempt of coup d'etat made in 1981appears to be quite far away.We could say that in Spain, in 1982, everything was future. However, the futurealso looks closer at enormous speed, like a black hole that devours everything in itspath.
