DESCUBRIMIENTO Y CONQUISTA. MIERCOLES DE PELICULA. La historia a través de cine
The Other Conquest
It is May 1520 in the vast Aztec Empire one year after the Spanish Conqueror Hernán Cortés’ arrival in Mexico. “The Other Conquest” opens with the infamous massacre of the Aztecs at the Great Temple of Tenochtitlan [what is now called Mexico City]. The sacred grounds are covered with the countless bodies of priests and nobility slaughtered by the Spanish Armies under Cortés’ command. The lone Aztec survivor of the massacre is a young Indian scribe named Topiltzin [Damián Delgado]. Topiltzin, who is the illegitimate son of the Aztec Emperor Moctezuma, survives the onslaught by burying himself under a stack of bodies. As if awakening from a dream, the young man rises from among the dead to find his mother murdered, the Spanish in power and the dawn of a new era in his native land. A New World with new leaders, language, customs… and God. Representing the New Order is the Spanish Friar Diego [José Carlos Rodríguez]. His mission is to convert the “savage” natives into civilised Christians; to replace their human sacrifices and feathered deities with public Christenings and fealty to the Blessed Virgin Mary. With Topiltzin, Friar Diego faces his most difficult spiritual and personal challenge, for when Topiltzin is captured by Spanish troops and presented to Cortés [Iñaki Aierra], the Spanish Conqueror places Topiltzin’s conversion under Friar Diego’s care. Old world confronts the New as Topiltzin struggles to preserve his own beliefs, whilst Friar Diego attempts to impose his own. Moreover, all the while, the question remains: Who is converting whom?

Gente de Teatro en su 24.º temporada, presenta la première de Madenusa, de la autora argentina Claudia Soroka, el 2, 3, 4 y 5 de mayo, 2019 en Hamman Hall, Rice University.
Con su estreno en los Estados Unidos, la obra ofrece un espejo de “Made in Argentina” de Fernández Tiscornia, presentada en el 2011, a la vez que nos muestra una de las tantas imágenes del inmigrante. Esta vez, Mabel y Osvaldo, instalados en USA desde hace años, recibirán a “la Yoli” y “el Negro”* de Argentina para reanudar lo que la vida interrumpió. ¿Qué sucede cuando el mundo que dejamos allá viaja y vuelve hacia nosotros?
Con gran talento y con la emoción de lo vivido, la autora nos entrega un texto fresco y divertido sobre la variada experiencia de dejar el país de origen y enfrentar los dilemas de otra cultura. La obra de Soroka revive una y otra vez los cuestionamientos de los que emigran y su impacto en los vínculos familiares, en la identidad personal y cultural de aquellos que se fueron hace tiempo y de los recién llegados.
¡Lo invitamos a reírse, pensar, emocionarse y apreciar la libertad de elegir!
*Término usado en Argentina como expresión de cariño
Providing a mirror of Fernández Tiscornia’s “Made in Argentina,” presented to the public in 2011, Soroka’s “Madenusa” is a fresh and engaging piece amusingly highlighting some of the multiple facets of the immigrant experience while delving into some of the intricacies of adjusting to a different culture (In Spanish, English Surtitles on May 3 & 4)
