Con dos maletas como únicas pertenencias, Oscar y Bruna, originarios de un país ficticio, alternando constantemente realidades presentes y recuerdos pasados, comparten anécdotas de su experiencia como exiliados, sus sueños, necesidades, frustraciones, deseos, amores, olvidos y recuerdos. Nuestra Señora de las Nubes mapea la experiencia de la diáspora como una condición existencial de desarraigo permanente, en este caso inspirada en la historia del exilio latinoamericano. El exilio, en esta obra, se convierte no sólo en la pérdida física de la propia patria, sino en la erosión de la capacidad de permanecer dentro de los propios recuerdos. La memoria, como una especie de empresa conjunta, permite entonces la construcción de un nuevo territorio al que pertenecer, una nueva patria del afecto donde sobrevivir, añorar y recordar.Read more
