Lamento is a romance in which a couple quarrel with the help of Micheal Jackson, Mariah Carey and many others. Every move is meticulously choreographed in a space that is a replica of a sitcom stage, and the reason for their fighting is somehow ignored or forgotten. Staged as a musical, refined and witty, Lamento meditates on how pop culture, slowly but surely, is colonising our souls.
After a 13-year-old student disappears without a trace for a week and suddenly reappears, his mother and teachers are confronted with existential questions that change their whole view of life.
