In "The Only Way (to tell this story is in mandarin)" presents us with a fragmented story in time, where three sisters play. His game proposes to ignore the reality, the impossibility, the passage of time. Three women-girls pass in a fragmented time which lead us and bring constantly. Women appear in moments of bitterness and cruelty. The girls play, sing, dance, tell stories, they darken and become women. And they put together a round circle in which hides a painful truth.
This is a very focused proposal in aesthetic creation. It has a beautiful scenery (Julian Villanueva), where space becomes a "past" and becomes "children." And with a dress (made by Cesar Taibo) which, being done all of the same genus (which very well could be upholstered in those old genres that relate to a home in the past), suggests a strong link between these three sisters, that appear to be large wrists with delicate dresses. Between the costumes, set design and inclusion of details like projection that can be seen before entering the room (in which a bee passes colorful landscapes), or the cup tangerine liqueur that invites viewers (also before the function), the environment is transformed into a warm space. Loaded with certain unreality and definitely style naif.
The plot is somewhat confusing. While there appears to be essential to go following you, but rather is presented as a sequence of photos where we see three girls dancing gladly and freely, any story where a story narrated by a child becomes a channel atonement by which complex thoughts of a density, a dance video clip mode, a never-ending story to tell ... with a truth waiting to emerge.
And so, after following this story presented as slides, a truth is revealed subtly suggested many times during the work. And all the past takes on greater weight. And the actions we are leading and will provide the necessary intensity for each particular time.
Among them are highlights of Ana Scannapieco (Burma), which consists of a woman who thinks being a girl, with a sensitivity to the surface and a great ability to laugh at those things themselves from the boys. A character parodied anything that flows with an ease fully studied.
Magdalena Grondona and Sabrina Gomez (Alaska and the Netherlands), with their performance, are those that give weight to this work that some of the disturbing story by Julio Cortazar, "Endgame" and maintains that same evocation of childhood that constructs Argentine writer.
"The only way (to tell this story is in Mandarin) is a very good job of direction and staging.
A different story for which it is worth adapting the senses.
