Description of the project
David Menéndez, former student of Lliure d'Eòlia with the play "Jauría" at the Romea Theatre. (This show could already be seen during the 23-24 season at the Teatre Romea in Barcelona).
3 am on July 7, 2016. San Fermín festivities. They are five friends who call themselves "La Manada". The youngest, and recent member, must go through an initiation ritual. After meeting a girl in the center of Pamplona, they offer to accompany her to her car, parked on the outskirts of the city. On the way one of them manages to access the portal of a building and calls out to the rest. They take the girl and put her inside.
This work was created from the transcripts of the media trial that took place between 2017 and 2019, with fragments of the statements of the accused and the complainant published in different media. A documentary fiction that allows us to travel through the mind of the victim and his aggressors. A trial where the complainant is revictimized, forced to give more details of her privacy than the accused themselves. A case that shook the concept of masculinity, consent and sexual assault in our society. A judgment that marked a before and an after.
