The play is set up as a confrontation between two memories; an Englishman born in Birmingham who came to live in Portugal in the 1990s and a Portuguese woman whose family had emigrated to London 40 years ago but never went to London. Besides autobiography, interviews were conducted with immigrants of different nationalities, and home videos, photographs and diaries compiled.This confrontation between the lived and idealized memory of these two countries, in constant juxtaposition with image, are the starting point for us to reflect also on the present moment that Europe is going through, what binds us together, and what separates us. This is the first of a series of shows on this subject. The next project will be concerned with the relation between other persons\/countries.<\/p>\n
