A satire that pays tribute to our relationship with language. Starred by María Adánez and José Troncoso.
Let’s imagine that one day, all of a sudden, a conventional woman accidentally becomes an accomplished erudite scholar in language and grammar. How would this circumstance change her life? Would she expand her personal and professional horizon as it is usually said, or would this new skills isolate her from her surroundings on the contrary?
Imagine at the same time a prestigious neuroscientific professional willing to subject this woman to an intensive process of linguistic unlearning in the opposite direction to that followed by the doctor Higgins on the florist Eliza Doolite in Bernard Shaw’s famous Pygmalion. In this case the goal would not be to improve her linguistic skills but to bring her back to an original state of expressive limitation in order to avoid the subsequent social inadaptability disorders caused by the inappropriate accident mentioned before.
