SYNOPSIS:
A disaster causes the separation of the
Spanish peninsula from the rest of the continent
and it begins floating off on the ocean like a stone
raft. The U.S.A. sees the possibility of getting more
territory and citizens. Spanish and Portuguese people
abandon their houses in order to escape the dangers
on the coast and go wandering about on the inland
roads. They become even more disorientated when the
peninsula begins to pivot on its axis and the sun rises
in the west.
