They are young, beautiful, and love each other. He is African American. She is North European. Out of the blue, a suspicious character enters the scene and ends up pursuing the woman. Although he turns to be harmless the ending is unpredictible.
The story is based on the poem "The King of Harlem" by Spanish writer Federico García Lorca. The text is collected in the volume Poet in New York and Other Poems as an ode to the suffering of black people in North America for living in a contrary world.
"The roses fled on the edges/of the last curves of the wind,/and on the heaps of saffron/ the small boys mauled the tiny squirrels/ flushed with a stained exaltation/.
The bridges must be crossed/and the blackness reached/so the perfume of our lungs/may beat against our temples with the vestures/of burning pine-cone."
