Antes de que tu ciudad se vaya a dormir, puede que decidas dar un paseo con tu perro a tu lado, y salgas de casa hacia la caída de la noche. Cualquier cosa puede ocurrir en ese paseo: puede que te encuentres con un gato, un amigo o incluso un mapache. Y mientras caminas por tu calle y doblas la esquina, las ventanas que te rodean comienzan a encenderse una a una, hasta adentrarte en un laberinto de lámparas de papel, cada una ofreciéndote una fugaz y luminosa instantánea de tus vecinos, cuando las familias se reúnen y se preparan para pasar la noche. 

 

English Description:

Before your town goes to sleep, you may decide to take a walk with your dog by your side, and leave the house towards nightfall. Anything can happen on that walk: you may meet a cat, a friend, or even a raccoon. And as you walk down your street and turn the corner, the windows that surround you begin to light up one by one, until you enter a maze of paper lanterns, each one offering you a fleeting and luminous snapshot of your neighbors, when families gather. and prepare to spend the night.
