A BLOOD RED SKY

It was a rural area where the inhabitants had to fulfill agricultural quotas almost impossible to pay established by the government. Karla and Rossi were prisoners in a field, the only thing that kept them alive was the idea of escape. They had been locked up for years in prison, life there was unbearable and the work was inhuman, a strong friendship between them is what makes them endure those difficult times. It was in Greece, the prisoners were subjected to extreme cold temperatures, working long hours to get some food.
One afternoon during the work day Rossi manages to get lost and find herself among the forest, a long way started, evading men who were looking for her, however he manages to reach a remote village where he is pleasantly welcomed by an old man and his daughter.
Rossi promised Karla that she would return for her. The mysterious old man had ancestral psychic powers and harbored people who were also prisoners. In this way, I am able to create, together with everyone, a protective network for former prisoners. They were so united and they became so strong that they achieved the freedom of almost everyone among them Karla.
