"Near my house, there is a thousand-year-old holm oak.
This tree is one of the largest in Europe and is a Portuguese historical monument.
Four years ago, it started to die from the inside.
What you have in front of you are two pieces of wood belonging to it, saved but dead.
The stars fall on the ruins of its roots."
