We whistled with a fruit stone and blew until we had no breath left.
“A long road” is the story of a forgotten job: the travelling salesman. Through the scared Spain of the sixties, a man continues going village by village with his suitcase plenty of new shoes and lost feelings. When you are alone on the road, you have to listen to your mind, your dreams and the words that were never being told. Then came the silence.
