Washing Machine

Washing clothes, playing an instrument. Simple everyday gestures that are interrupted by the libidinous behavior of a washing machine.

Uma máquina de lavar a roupa cuja luxúria interrompe o mais inocente momento, como tocar guitarra ou tentar dormir um sono profundo. E o mecânico não ajuda. (Ana Cabral Martins)
