In which the sculptor encounters his friends Donatello and Miriam amidst the festive carnival, and they share a tender and somber conversation that reveals past sorrows, hidden truths, and the weighty shadows that linger upon their lives. As they muse upon the mysterious interplay of sin and suffering, hope and fate, the fleeting brightness of their present companionship gleams with the poignant sweetness of a momentary paradise.
