The actors of La Fura dels Baus explained that the show, based on taking the Dubrovka theater in Moscow, a Chechen terrorist group, is the exposure of some historical facts.
"It is a film of good and bad", but a statement of something that really happened, which is recreated from fiction so that each draw their own conclusions.
Not everyone interpreted the same, and against which means that there is an approach to the thesis of the terrorists, make it clear that from the beginning it is clear that we condemn terrorism and to understand otherwise you have not understood anything of show.
Actors compared the situation to the interpretation as a tribute to the brutality that made the Americans in Vietnam film "Apocalypse Now", when in reality is a hymn to peace.
Another thing is that the public faces of the terrorists as people who kidnapped three days left to know and show the reasons, such as a terrorist to which the invading troops left without a husband or children, which have reached a situation that ended in tragedy when Russian forces entered the theater to beat the terrorists, in a move that also ended the lives of 130 civilians from the public, real victims of the situation.

A show that takes on added value now with the events in Georgia.
The helplessness of the hostages, unaware of the motives of the terrorists and the reasons for his government, is what we feel the public in person, and where lies the rejection front, to terrorist methods expressed in the work.
One of the actresses who played a terrorist, he reflected on his personal experience in front of the character, and admitted that although unable to kill anyone, did not find a clear answer to "what would or would react if suddenly some foreign troops invade my city destroying everything and killing people, my loved ones, as happens to my character.
I really do not know. "
A reflection that also translates to the public as happened to one of the participants in the roundtable, who confessed to having seen the show out with the Stockholm syndrome, understanding the intimate reasons for terrorists despite denying that the end justifies the media.
