Winter dreams and the invincible summer
"On the day George W. Bush took his oath as the 43rd President of the United States, I began my life as an illegal alien. It was a conscious decision and it felt a lot like I was crossing a line, invisible to others, though unmistakable in the eyes of the law. But this is America, I thouhgt: life follows a different kind of logic here."
Micky R. Rompa is a twenty-something Indonesian immigrant who comes to America with a bag of unresolved issues. To get away from his abusive father back home. Nicky goes on to stay with his relatives in Boston. Pretty soon, it seems as though he is living the dream: he meets a beautiful Russian girl, goes on road trips, gets a job, and finally experiences the America he had only seen on TV before. Yet, like any dream, it ends. And he is left with the choices of either going home or sticking around while hoping - against all odds - that the dream will return.
