It's the small apartment of a vague cousin in Buenos Aires that a man has just inherited: maybe the real Marcial Di Fonzo Bo, maybe another man with almost the same name, maybe a bit of both. We don't know, and neither does he. He's searching, and we investigate with him. We delve into the muddled memory of twentieth-century dictatorships, their ghosts and their disappeared: here, a Jewish French composer in Paris during the Occupation; over there, a dissident musician in 1978, both of whom vanished into thin air. Desaparecido.
This labyrinthine play, written and directed by Davide Carnevali, has been created in different countries, for different actors - in this case, Marcial Di Fonzo Bo - adjusting to their personal histories, playing with the chronologies between fiction and reality. It plunges us with virtuosity into a poetic vertigo that is both playful and terrible.
