Amistad
Although they have shared all kinds of games since they were just kids, today these friends are going to play what may well be their last game - a game with which to mock both life and death. It’s a dangerous game, because what’s at stake is their very friendship... A reflection on life, memories, love, masculinity, friendship and the passing of time, full of humour and thought.
As human beings - timorous and deceitful as well as sincere and heroic - many of us need games to face the truth. To face it without blindfolds and so that it can flow into our mouths like a spring that can only be sealed by the end of the game itself... But what’s said is said. And what's done is done.
Guaranteed belly laughs for the audience, charged with the philosophy of Juan Mayorga. And the fact is that death can be quite funny.
