Punto Cero tells the story of four friends, Andrea, a publicist whose ads come true, and her twin sister Lucy, who gets up in the middle of the night and cannot recognise herself in the mirror, Mauricio, who works the night shift at a drugstore and samples medication forf un, and Ray, who, upon arriving at his new apartment, watches his kidnapping on television and decides to follow the news of his whereabouts on the screen. They are joined by Cindy, an inflatable doll.

In this novel, halfway between television and social media, I tried to use the idiot box, the glass teat, as a creative element. Every time I got stuck, I turned on the TV and changed the channels until I found a phrase that I liked and restarted writing using it.
