The scar on the line

AUTHOR: Luis Bartolomé Herrero

Synopsis

Abel is the owner of a bar and Eusebio and Marcelo their regular customers. When you enter and see that Abel has committed suicide, decided to try to dissect it to steal the money that he had saved. For the people it is said that Abel is the father of Paul, the guy that killed your father in the string.
The work draws on the sources of Lorca, Valle-Inclán, Eusebio Calonge, Laila Ripoll... Is a grotesque comedy, where the dead talk to the living through letters, of apparitions, and hallucinations. The humor and tragedy are the vehicle of a society abducida by superstition, hatred, and the heavy customs, which slow down everything.

"The scar on the line" is a nonsense comical, where the living talk with the dead. Raises a number of questions about the superstition, the guilt, the homosexuality, the machismo, the tradition... Search for the viewer to consider to what extent, to what extent, their world (of the spectator) is reduced to its impressions.
