NO ME OLVIDES
"Because the only death is oblivion."
This work addresses the issue of False Positives from a critical, dancing and performative point of view (in Colombia this is the name given to the disappearances of low-income young people who were later executed by the Colombian army and falsely shown as casualties of the insurgency and whose responsibility has been proven).
NO ME OLVIDES is a questioning of the logic with which the mass media has lightly approached this subject, it is a criticism of how truths have been relativized in the midst of show business and the show. Don't Forget Me is a piece to live it, a proposal that involves many elements of interactivity with the audience. In the scene, the audience is constantly being questioned and made to enter this media atmosphere and then give them an unexpected turn where they are made to take sides and get involved in the proposal. For the creation of this piece we have relied on a team of work with very high human and artistic qualities, it is the result of a social investigation in which some directly affected sources have been involved.
