THE COLLECTION by Juan Mayorga
Text and direction by Juan Mayorga
With José Sacristán, Ana Marzoa, Ignacio Jiménez and Zaira Montes.
Héctor and Berna are a childless couple, throughout their lives they have gathered a collection to which they sacrificed everything else. Now, old people, they want to make sure that the collection outlives them, for which they are looking for an heir. They have called Susana, a collector herself, perhaps to examine it. They are accompanied by Carlos, perhaps an examiner himself, if not a piece of the collection. The collection is a work about marriage, about the passage of time and about the mysterious relationship between people and objects.
“Someone needed to make the collection. Images separated by oceans or centuries were waiting for someone to bring them together. Their destiny was the collection. If one day, in a million years, a being capable of thinking and feeling finds the collection, they will know what humanity is and what it could have been. Before you go through that door, think that when you come back to this side, you will see everything from the collection. Also other people and yourself. The collection reveals you. You cannot look at it and not wonder who you are, because it contains everything you are and everything you are not.”
Juan Mayorga
