An interpreter takes a vow of silence in order to re-define the terms on which
she lives.
Mara is a simultaneous interpreter who moves to a provincial town in Argentina
in order to speak as little as possible for a year. Steeled with the ten rules
of silence set out in her manual of rhetoric, she takes a job as a guard in the
local museum. The advantages of her work are threatened when she's asked to
assist in the re-embalming of the museum's pride and joy: two horses-of great
national and historical significance-are disintegrating and must be saved. But
her goal and her slippery grasp on sanity lead her to more anarchistic means to
bolster her purpose. Bold, subversive, and threaded through with acerbic wit,
Include Me Out is an homage to silence and the impossibility of achieving it.
