The immobilizing fear of change

Cadaqués, Sitges and Caldetes. Several holidaymakers are enjoying their time in similar situations but in very different historical periods: in July 1968, on 17 July 1936 and on 30 July 1909. Through this journey over time, the show becomes a mirror of the immobility and impenetrability of the Catalan bourgeoisie.

When in an interview on television Montserrat Roig asked Maria Aurèlia Capmany about the portrayal of the Catalan bourgeoisie in her work, she answered:
The Catalan bourgeoisie is very easy to fictionalise, but it does not resemble the English. Because it is unstable, insecure, very changing […], it is short, it ends, destroys itself, it is dying and restless and this, of course, turns it into an enormously attractive collective character.
We draw on the text of Vent de garbí i una mica de por to continue looking at the patterns of bourgeois behaviour, to examine the feeling of being a social class apart, to imagine a fourth revolution, a fourth summer and a fourth and eternal immobility of these wealthy classes.
