Monica Scapparone, a talented Argentine actress and director, is coming to the Instituto Cervantes in Naples to present her moving play "24 de marzo de 1976. Argentina." The event will take place on October 15th at the Instituto's headquarters in Naples, starting at 10:XNUMX a.m.
The monologue and the Argentine history
The monologue tells the tragic story of a young woman who disappeared during Argentina's last military dictatorship. Written, directed, and starring Scapparone, the monologue takes place in 1976, during the coup d'état that marked the beginning of the military regime known as the National Reorganization Process. This dark period in Argentina's history was marked by disappearances, kidnappings, and violence, including the painful case of 30.000 missing persons, including more than 500 children kidnapped or born in clandestine detention.
The personal experience of one of the victims
The protagonist of Scapparone's monologue is one of these victims, a young woman kidnapped at the age of 18 when she was three months pregnant.
