In a family marked by the defense against external attacks, aggression becomes the food that guarantees survival, indoors as well. Violence becomes a disease that spreads among them, being more lethal than Pompey’s army and so, the poison consumed to immunize oneself ends up flooding everything in a Black Sea where life becomes no longer possible.

The ‘serious’ did not make Mozart famous. Immortalized for giving the immensity of the divine to the most earthly characters, at his fourteen years he wrote his first great opera and, perhaps, his crudest work. One that would not consecrate him but in which he would find his talent to describe the human soul; ironically, in his darkest characters.

And it is in this agonizing portrait of cruelty and vulnerability where our Wunderkind achieves with his characters the universal.
