Memòries d'una vella boja

An old woman walks under the watchful eye of those who, in one way or another, presume to have known her. The walk, which becomes a vital journey through the memories and images of her life, is a succession of voices that alternate and intertwine to give life to a character that from the beginning is condemned by those around her. Memoirs of a crazy old woman is a story about misunderstanding, about moral judgments that are often guided by feelings rather than by reason, and about the difficult life of a woman that, in a disorderly way, we are piecing together line after line, voice after voice.
