La mano izquierda toma voluntad propia y destruye todo lo que construyó: se sobrepasa con Francisca y pierde el trabajo; mientras Raúl duerme, ahorca a su madre. Se ve obligado a enfrentarse a su mano izquierda en una pelea a muerte donde pierde su brazo. Finalmente Raúl logra encontrar su voz con el piano. En la cárcel donde esta recluido da un gran concierto, en el que suple la ausencia de la mano con los dedos del pie. (Texto tomado de la fuente).
