A week before the meeting, on 7 November 2025 <\/strong>(Friday) at 9:45 am<\/strong>, a video theatre performance by N\u00facleo Creativo CC titled Baviera<\/em><\/strong> (2021, 41\u2019) will be presented in the Theatre Studio<\/strong> with an introduction by Prof. Zi\u00f3\u0142kowski.<\/p>\n

Description: Baviera<\/em> explores the concept of evil associated with the system of repression and punishment established in Colonia Dignidad<\/em>. It is, at the same time, a stage play that combines theatre and cinema to propose a shared reflection on this system.<\/p>\n

Synopsis: A girl is treated at the Colonia Dignidad<\/em> hospital, a compound in southern Chile led by Paul Sch\u00e4fer, and begins to be held captive to continue treatments that cure illnesses she no longer has. The drugs she is given keep her in a permanent state of hallucination and chaos. The girl is forced to learn German and is illegally adopted by a German family. Lost in a maze of unanswered questions, she tries to reconstruct her reality.<\/p>\n

N\u00facleo Creativo CC<\/strong> is a duo established in 2017 by Edison C\u00e1jas and Daniela Contreras-L\u00f3pez to explore, along with other artists and contributors, scenic devices by mixing cinema and theatre resources with audience participation. Their artistic work combines interdisciplinary research to explore the Chilean dictatorship (1973\u201390) and its effects on the current society, crossing stories based on their personal lives with events occurred in Chile in recent years, as a way to bring a present reflection to the social sphere. Their method consists of conceiving the scenic pieces as a cinematographic assembly, in which the theatrical elements are developed according to the mechanics of cinema.<\/p>\n

Edison C\u00e1jas<\/strong> is a Chilean filmmaker, theater director, and graduate in Philosophy. He has directed six fiction short films and a feature documentary premiered at the Locarno Film Festival. His work focuses on Chile\u2019s historical memory, exploring the connections between trauma, truth, and representation. As a filmmaker, he has directed and coordinated several audiovisual memory archives dedicated to survivors of extermination camps and torture centers in Chile, including the Villa Grimaldi Oral Archive, Colonia Dignidad, and the Borgo\u00f1o Archive. His work seeks to confront violence and disappearance through an ethics of image and memory.<\/p>\n

Daniela Contreras-L\u00f3pez<\/strong> is a Chilean performing artist whose work spans directing and acting, both in film and theatre. Her practice stems from a drive to explore memory, human rights and the traces of dictatorship in present-day Chile, articulating theatrical and cinematographic languages in hybrid and collaborative devices.<\/p>\n

The artists\u2019 visit to Adam Mickiewicz University in Pozna\u0144 is funded by the Ministerio de las Culturas, las Artes y el Patrimonio de Chile<\/em><\/strong> (MINCAP).<\/p>\n
