Laberinto 401 seeks to convey the message: What is freedom?
"Then night fell and still no one came to tell him that it was enough [...] At that moment, the son understood that his mission had been to be disobedient and that he had not passed the test [...] he knew that he would never fly again, that he could never be happy again, and that, for as long as he lived, he would remain in the labyrinth."
