Synopsis
Leonardo Oviedo is an ambitious theater director, whose works have not achieved the success he dreamed of. Looking for some recognition, he decides to write a play for four characters; a single performance, where all the actors have to die on stage. He chooses an old alcoholic actor, an overweight actress, an endearing boy with an intellectual disability, and a black actor, who has only been chosen because of the color of his skin. The work generates a media stir in both the good and bad sense, while the director is willing to fulfill this repugnant artistic ideal.Cast
