Background : a typical rural mexican broom-seller has to travel 2 days on foot to get to the market, every week and earns some 5 dollars.
Plus, land-scapes and mind-scapes of South America, esp as they comes across through Gabriel Garcia Marquez's novels - Innocent Erendira, No one writes to the colonel, One hundred years of solitude, Of love and other demons, etc.
An attempt to combine both - Marquez's magic realism and the poverty in Latin America.
