Night Vision invites us to consider a different approach to life, one in which we stop feeling bad about feeling bad.

Ritos de pasaje, adolescentes fanatizadas con estrellas de rock, inframundos donde conviven seres que han complotado para que Kurt Cobain, Sid Vicious y Jim Morrison mueran repentinamente y pasen a la historia...

Vivir lejos de necesidades biológicas como el sol, el sueño, el aire limpio, el sosiego o la dieta que nos corresponde genéticamente como humanos nos aleja de nuestro camino natural desde el punto de vista evolutivo y nos puede llevar a enfermar.
