“Jauria” | Spain

Playwright: Jordi Casanovas

Translator: Tim Gutteridge

Director: Iraida Tapias

In collaboration with Instituto Cervantes of Chicago and Water People Theater

Synopsis: "Jauria" is based on the transcriptions of the court trial of "la manada,” built up with fragments of the actual court declarations of defendants and the accuser. A documentary-like fiction from very real material, too much real, allowing a trip inside the minds of the victim and her aggressors. A court trial where the victim is forced to provide more details on her personal intimacy than the defendants. A case that once more removes the concept of masculinity and its relationship with sex in our society. A court trial that sets up a milestone.

Content Notice: "Jauria" contains sexual violence, sexually explicit and strong language
