This Saturday, September 26, the Sala Congesta in Portbou will host the presentation of the theatre play "Caure / To fall", directed by Helena Tornero.

The performance offers a journey through the life, events, and emotions of a woman who embodies multiple identities. The play is constructed as a scenic battle with temporal leaps spanning several decades of the Francoist regime, from the 1940s to the 1970s.
This initiative is a proposal by the Memorial Democràtic, as part of the European project WIRE (Women in Resistance), led by the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB).
The play is part of the programming for the XVIII International Colloquium Walter Benjamin 2026.
