Toggle Group description

“El pueblo”
“Tyranny cuts the head who sings, but the voice at the bottom of the well returns to the secret springs of earth, and from the darkness it will rise, from the mouth of the people” (Pablo Neruda)

Common people, men and women, husbands, wives, fathers, mothers, sons and daughters.
They are the heart of a hidden resistance, silent, dramatic, and tragic.
They fight to protect their loved ones, their families, to find them and reunite them. They secretly collaborate with the resistance, endangering themselves and their families.
They are unjustly accused innocents, guilty of misrepresented or daring opinions, or simply victims of personal retaliation.
Everyone has a different story, but they are all united by a clandestine fight, in the name of their loved ones and freedom, or by the fear of the regime.

The people of el Pueblo will have a game centered on familiar drama, the change of everyday life, personal survival and survival of the loved ones.
THEMES: fear, family, security, betrayal

Teaser:


Since curfew, Umberto Edgardo has been leaving his factory with his low head and quick steps. Speaking up his mind was a folly he’s dearly paying living in fear, hurrying up to get back home to his wife Adriana and their daughter Marisol. Almost jumping whenever he hears a noise or spots someone unfamiliar in the streets. This is no life. It’s a daily routine made of suspicion, diffidence, silence and scare, of sham and chains. The same iron links he helped forging, now bend his shoulders and clench his throat, strangling him.

Relations:


He’s eyes are no longer shining as they did when he and his wife Adriana Urrutia Assenjo   were young. Maria Elena Soza   is the nurse who saved his leg after a bad accident, years before. Hector Hernan Gonzales Osorio   is more than a friend, he’s like a brother. They are neighbours, and even if they come from a different social class, they deeply respect each other.
