Synopsis "El Músico Ciego (in Spanish)"
In this charming story that exudes compassion for the downtrodden and masterfully evokes the wonder and majesty of nature, the protagonist is born blind to a pair of well-to-do landowners in rural Ukraine. While the boy’s father wants little to do with him, his perceptive and sensible mother determines to foster and educate his senses as much as possible, exposing him to literature, nature, and music. It’s through the last of these that the boy—incredibly sensitive to the world around him, but lacking the means with which to express himself—finds his true freedom. This simple, sweetly rendered tale is a celebration of life’s simple pleasures and its brief moments of beauty.En esta encantadora historia que exude compasión por los oprimidos y magistralmente evoca la maravilla y majestuosidad de la naturaleza, el protagonista nace ciego a una pareja de propietarios acomodados en la Ucrania rural. Mientras el padre se desatiende del niño, la madre, sensible y lúcida, decide fomentar y educar sus sentidos en la medida de sus posibilidades, exponiéndolo a la literatura, la naturaleza y la música. Es a través de esta última que el niño—tremendamente sensitivo al mundo que lo rodea pero sin un conducto a través del cual expresarse—consigue la libertad. Este relato sencillo y dulce es una celebración de los placeres simples de la vida y los breves momentos de belleza.
