What I liked

The theatrical creation… the Direction. Bravo!!!

What I didn't like

It was an excellent performance of these group of real life no-actors.

My overall impression

This has been an authentic theatrical collective creation, under a good direction.
It was really impressive the way in which the routine of an apparent passive and slow scene … monotonous from real life, with the sudden appearance of violence -first verbal and then physical, of the predators that have ambushed their prey; it was a theatrically powerful, strong and painful scene that leaded various almost to the tears.
I remember that until then in the audience there were soft murmurs … and then the audience was in a sepulchral silence, caught in the harsh and unpleasant surprise, with eyes and ears wide open, helpless seeing that representation of a grim and ignored truth… until now.
Congratulations to that great team that acted … who lived and represented our lives.
