-Because of its very interesting feminist approach to the Greek myth of Persephone: Zeus’ daughter and maiden, who is abducted by her uncle Hades and later becomes the queen of the dead.
-Because of its combination of languages, which crosses theater, music and a high visuality. The latter highlights a story that seems to repeat itself over and over again.

The story of the only unpunished rape of Olympus: that of Pérsefone, abducted by her uncle Hades.
In the middle of a dry field, we hear a voice that tells us a never-ending story: a young girl has disappeared, a desperate mother is looking for her. The actresses Marcela Salinas and Belén Herrera, along with the actor Héctor Morales, perform scenes that present the story of the only unpunished rape of Olympus: that of Persephone, daughter of Demeter and Zeus, kidnapped by her uncle Hades. Taking as a reference the Thesmophoria Festival (ancient Greece), the play is developed in front of an audience that, through headphones, listens to the voice that guides and narrates the story. A text written by Nicolás Lange that proposes dynamic, disruptive and political images, addressing issues related to gender violence and its origins.

»El texto escrito por el joven autor contemporáneo Nicolás Lange propone imágenes dinámicas, disruptivas y políticas, que abordan temas contingentes sobre la violencia de género y sus orígenes«.
-Por su muy interesante enfoque feminista sobre el mito griego de Perséfone: hija de Zeus y doncella raptada por su tío Hades que posteriormente se convierte en la reina de los muertos.
-Por su mezcla de lenguajes, que cruza teatro, música y una alta visualidad que da cuenta de una historia que parece repetirse por los siglos de los siglos.
