Guillermo Calderón, a political dramatist

Guillermo Calderón is a Chilean dramatist dedicated to political drama. The most distinguished writing of his are Escuela, Villa, Discurso, Clase and Mateluna. He studied teatro in Universidad de Chile and then he completed a Master in New York.

Escuela and Mateluna are two works related to the guerrilla groups during the dictatorial regime in Chile. The first of them narrates how operated some of the guerrilla groups to fight the oppression, his strategies and the risk of participate in this groups. With the goal of collect documents to complete the first step of the dramaturgic investigation, Guillermo Calderón and his company interviewed ex frontier called Jorge Mateluna. He delivered information about the techniques and the political scene of the military dictatorship from a struggling perspective.

After of the premiere of “Escuela”, Jorge Mateluna was unfairly arrested, perhaps to sentence his past like a member of FPMR (He was accused of being guilty of bank assault). Guillermo Calderón couldn’t stay in calm with that injustice and in his way he materialized his anger in a play: Mateluna. In Mateluna, Calderón reveals the arbitrary of the Chilean legal system and proves the innocence of Jorge Mateluna

Personal opinions

What is your opinion about legalizing abortion in some cases? I am absolutely convinced that the body belongs to each one of us. For that reason I´m totally agree with the three cases of abortion categorized in the recent and necessary law. Besides, I hope that the regulation of abortion gets an upgrade and finally becomes in free abortion, ensuring the clarity of the information, the bio psychosocial well-being (therapeutic company, equal access, etc.). All is only because the woman deserves to make a decision, the decision that she thinks is better. What is your opinion about recycling? I am reasonably sure that the recycling was the past (but we take conscious later), is the present (we are doing something, a little but something) and is the future (we had a long time to understand that the world, our environment needs care, accumulative care). The recycling is an essential process that makes the garbage suitable for reuse. All our waste, all our inorganic trash has the p

Belle and Sebastian again!

Hello partners! How are you? In this enter I’m going to write about the most incredible concert that I’ve had in my life (and the second and last): I’m talking about Belle and Sebastian live performance. One day, I was navigating in Belle and Sebastian’ Facebook page and I found an advertisement that promoted their around the world’ tour. When I saw it, the only thing that I hoped it was that Chile was considered in their list. Fortunately for Chilean fans, the band wanted to come back to the country in two years. First of all, I remember the precise date of the live performance: It was on 22th October, 2015. The entry to the concert was really great. When I arrived to Teatro Caupolicán, I received a photograph of me with some of the belongings of the members of the band (I was very excited for that!). Then, I noticed that the gallery was almost empty, which allowed me to get a privileged position. In the middle of the concert, I felt a pleasant feeling becaus

Sunny food

Hello, today I’m going to talk about my favorite food of all the times. In first place, I have to say that I’m not so good at making decisions. So, I’m going to pick three of the mouth-watering foods that exist to me: porotos granados, humitas y pastel de choclo. In my grandma’ house there is a vegetable garden where she grows beans, corn, basil, pumpkins, etc. All these products are the basic substrates to make the marvelous home-cooked food. In this sense, I have to recognize that I eat my fist favorite food (porotos Granados) every weekend in summer. Also, in that season I enjoy the humitas frequently in despite of the difficulty of cooking this (and many flies fly around them). When I changed my diet to the vegetarian one, I was afraid because that decision would generate that, for example, I couldn’t eat my third favorite food. But my grandma showed up like a super heroin and made a Pastel de choclo with a base of soy. Unbelievably, the taste was exactly the same,
