PRESENTA
Direction and playwriting Guillermo Calderón
After touring the world, Guillermo Calderón's acclaimed play, which questions the place of memory and the traces left by human rights violations in Chilean society today, returns to the local theater.
Villa puts on stage three women discussing how to remodel Villa Grimaldi, the main torture and extermination center of the Pinochet dictatorship. What to do: rebuild the house demolished by the military, build a modern museum? The debate reflects the real discussions taking place in human rights organizations that defend the memory of survivors.
Villa has been presented at the former torture centers José Domingo Cañas, Londres 38, and Villa Grimaldi in Santiago, at the Parque de la Memoria in Buenos Aires, and at festivals in Vienna, Edinburgh, Paris, Madrid, Lisbon, Düsseldorf, Sarajevo, Sao Paulo, Brasilia, Montevideo and Lima, among others.
