Le loro vite erano tormentate dalla ricerca di qualcosa che continuava a sfuggire e osservavano il mondo dall'esterno, senza farne mai davvero parte. Chi si sente fuori posto prova ogni giorno il doloroso desiderio di trovare un luogo da chiamare casa e vive la vita col fiato sospeso, sperando di riuscire un giorno a respirare.
