"Der Rosenkavalier" by Richard Strauss, is a wonderful comedy of errors that reflects upon the passage of time.

Gener interviews psychologist Patricia Ramírez Loeffler, to discuss topics about the passage of time, about how it affects us all, about our fear of aging, about couples with a significant age difference, but also, about giving up and accepting.
