Tres fábulas de Villa Ocampo
A fugitive, a fetishist and a detective walk through a mansion built in the 19th century on the banks of the River Plate. Within its walls, there are resonances, portraits of illustrious or unknown people, books, souvenirs, furniture from different periods and styles. At the heart of this secret order is a woman who has been portrayed throughout her life by painters of the Belle Epoque, by neoclassical sculptors, by avant-garde photographers. To reconstruct the history of these women, each of the visitors will create a fable, in which the essential names of the 20th-century culture are intertwined. Among the visitor to Victoria Ocampo's mansion we can mention the architect Le Corbusier, the composer Igor Stravinsky, the writers Graham Greene, Aldous Huxley, Waldo Frank, Albert Camus... You will also hear the whisper of two young writers cementing what will be a bond that will last for decades: Adolfo Bioy Casares and Jorge Luis Borges...
