Sagasti nos guia en un viaje que va desde la musica nacida bajo el sol a la musica enviada al espacio en la mision Voyager. Desde Rothko hasta el rock, desde aquellos compositores en los campos de concentracion hasta una habitacion donde se escuchan los lamentos de los reclutas argentinos en Malvinas.
