How is family memory addressed in a state based on forgetting? What is the family legacy of the wounds of the Civil War? And what is the role played by our mothers?
Enrique Isart Alonso was shot by Francoist forces in Cartagena on 14 August 1939. He left a letter containing a message to his mother Virginia Alonso. His remains have since disappeared, in one of the many ignominious episodes on which Spain's "model" transition to democracy was based.

When the Great Helmsman ordered all the sparrows to be exterminated because they ate the harvest, Ming-Li decided to save as many of them as she could. This little girl's courageous gesture would be a lesson to those who unable to see how important each species is in the life cycle. A poetic and emotional performance about small everyday heroes, respect for life and the innate wisdom of children.

'Cáscaras vacías'

by Magda Labarga and Laila Ripoll
coproduced by CDN and La Zona Teatro

Cáscaras vacías [Empty shells] is a network of stories interwoven with testimonies from Aktion T4, the code name that the Nazis gave to their euthanasia programme aimed at eliminating people with disabilities, whom they believed had life unworthy of life, who they called empty shells, and the first victims were children. Hartheim castle was one of the places where this operation was carried out. Six people talk about their lives. Six people who would have been murdered at Hartheim Castle tell us about it. Six performers with disabilities create a theatrical discourse about difference, and what is useful or useless in each person's life.
