Through the eyes of Pariz, the protagonist, the dark nuances of a life filled with difficulties are revealed: bad grades, a broken family due to an alcoholic and abusive father, poverty, and the pain of living in a constant struggle for survival. Pariz, accustomed to indifference and pain, seeks to escape her reality through cigarettes while confronting her own emotional emptiness. On the other hand, Lápiz, a girl with a past of abuse and loneliness, has never known love in any form. Her childhood was marked by abuse at her old school and the abandonment of any family figure. Now, with a closed and distrustful personality, she finds it hard to open up to others. She lives in a constant state of distrust, unable to connect with those around her, slowly opening up to new emotions, cherishing them, but also denying them. She constantly fights with herself to accept experiences and learn from them, recalling blocked memories and disturbing experiences, confronting them little by little to discover herself. Each character in the story has their own background and development. Johan, JJ, Joakin, and other companions, all with their own wounds and motivations, play a fundamental role in the growth and transformation of Pariz and Lápiz. As they face their own trials of pain and redemption, their paths intertwine, leading each one to confront what they fear most: their own fears, traumas, and the possibility of finding something as foreign to them as love and acceptance, in a small group of young people wounded in different ways, hiding it to be with others. "Beyond Pain and Loneliness" is a raw and unembellished exploration of the effects of abuse, loneliness, emotional dependency, and the desire to belong. It is a story unafraid to show the darkness of life and the disappointment of any attempt to escape that hole, but it also highlights the sparks of salvation in a poetic way, even if imperfect and filled with scars.
