Emparedadas
Julia O'Faolain
Synopsis "Emparedadas"
Social and political unrest in the Gaul during the Early Middle Ages serves as the backdrop for a powerful tale of reclusion, passions, and excesses featuring female characters. Guilt and fear of the body, the brutality of everyday life, submission, and death are the foremost feelings experienced by these excluded or voluntarily confined souls, they are the axes upon which the existence of these women revolves as they walk a fine line between sanctity and lunacy, and as they desire nothing more than to feel alive, even if through pain. El desorden social y político en la Galia durante la Alta Edad Media sirve de escenario para un poderoso relato de reclusión, pasiones y excesos protagonizado por mujeres. La culpa y el miedo al cuerpo, a la brutalidad de la vida cotidiana, al sometimiento y a la muerte son los sentimientos centrales de unos seres excluidos o voluntariamente confinados, los ejes sobre los cuales gira la existencia de unas mujeres que traspasan los límites entre santidad y locura, y que desean sentirse vivas incluso a través del dolor.
