Una notte in una città spenta, illuminata dai neon, che crea un paesaggio quasi surreale. Un uomo cammina tra le strade, invisibile e silenzioso, con un’apparenza ordinaria che cela un significato straordinario: è Dio. Non il Dio maestoso e onnipotente delle religioni, ma un “dio delle piccole cose,” legato ai desideri e ai bisogni insignificanti degli uomini, come trovare un oggetto smarrito o vivere piccole soddisfazioni. Attraverso questa figura, il racconto riflette sull’umanità e sulla sua indifferenza, meschinità e incapacità di cogliere il bello nei dettagli.
