«Soldato, dove hai messo il tuo cilicio?» Con questo incipit il romanzo introduce il lettore in una società distopica, una città ¿ fortezza popolata da soli uomini e organizzata in un rigido ordinamento gerarchico. La classe dominante è rappresentata dai Superiori, che governano la Città e sono a loro volta soggetti all¿autorità assoluta dell¿Irreprensibile. Egli è l¿unico a poter entrare in contatto diretto con il Teobasilio, un¿entità mistica che è l¿unica fonte di energia per tutta la Città. L¿ossatura della società è costituita dai soldati, che sono soggetti a una rigida disciplina e vengono sorvegliati dal corpo speciale delle Sentinelle. Tutti portano sull¿omero un cilicio, simbolo di fedeltà al Teobasilio. La storia inizia quando il soldato Zaion viene sorpreso privo del cilicio regolamentare. Punito e degradato, egli non sa o non vuole fornire una giustificazione plausibile né dare indicazioni sulla sorte dell¿oggetto scomparso. I Superiori gli mettono alle costole un¿ambigua Sentinella, Anton, con l¿incarico di aiutarlo nelle ricerche ma soprattutto di esercitare una stringente sorveglianza.

In The Headlands, Henry is an amateur sleuth and true crime aficionado who sets out to solve the ultimate case: the unsolved murder of his father. Using his memories and the family stories he was told as a child growing up in San Francisco, Henry begins an investigation through a labyrinth of secrets and deceptions that leads him to question those closest to him. The Headlands is a contemporary noir that explores the stories we tell ourselves and the fallibility of the mind.Author's Note: Inspired by Vertigo and other San Francisco noir, as well as the exquisitely precise tone management of Kazuo Ishiguro's novels, the play's primary requirement for its creative team will be to make each scene, each moment, a highly distinct pocket of atmosphere, mood and emotion. There should a cinematic quality to each scene, and to the flow of the production as a whole.

Morir es inevitable y por ello, contar con un plan para el final de la vida también debiese de serlo. Aunque la planificación en este sentido pareciera ser una obligación, la realidad nos muestra todo lo contrario ya que la mayoría de las personas mueren sin contar con un plan eficaz para ese momento.Una buena planeación para el final de la vida no es el producto de improvisar algunas indicaciones, comunicar informalmente algunas preferencias o realizar uno que otro trámite. Planificar para ese momento implica realizar un conjunto de decisiones, acciones y diligencias que tienen la intención de salvaguardar la dignidad de la persona durante la fase final y dar soporte efectivo a la familia en las etapas posteriores. La previsión para el final de la vida es para toda persona adulta y comienza reflexionando con pertinencia y oportunidad acerca de la muerte propia y de sus implicaciones."Morir Chingón" nos invita a recapacitar sobre este tema con el objetivo de entender las emociones, las razones de cambio, las decisiones y las acciones que se requieren para establecer un plan integral y efectivo que acompañe a la persona y a su familia en el final de la vida. "Morir chingón" es una lectura al alcance de cualquier persona que esté interesada en construir un plan de esta naturaleza. Nos muestra de manera secular y didáctica los elementos, las implicaciones y los consejos que debemos de considerar para ese momento y con ello dar soporte a todos los involucrados."Morir chingón" nos enseña que cada persona merece un final de la vida digno y cada familia merece transitar por un duelo útil y recibir una sucesión libre de problemas y contratiempos.
