Some school themes, assigned during the general culture course, are edited by eliminating all the information present, leaving only the red marks of the corrections.
The result are some abstract paintings where the initial polyphony gradually gives way to the lead voice of the teacher, Miranda.

A fixed shot portrays Miranda, the teacher, and the only female figure in the school.
Her gaze, fixed on the camera, is the photograph of a growing tension in which she alternates severity, concern and a proud authority.
