The theater performance, called “La Bruja y Don Cristóbal”, aims to portray the witch-hunt that the anarchist movement has continually suffered throughout the years in Spain. The main character of the play is a witch, who represents people with a poor public image that must face the four powers governing society: property, religion, the strength of the state, and the law. During the course of the story, puppets portray a clash with the police to represent the force of the state. The police hit the witch until she becomes unconscious.
After that, police use false statements to incriminate her, placing a banner of “Gora Alka-ETA” on her body, and trying to take a picture as evidence before others arrive at the scene. The fourth figure, who is the Judge, accuses and sentences her to death. The witch manages to deceive the judge, who wraps his head with his own rope and commits suicide. This is the essence of what takes place in the play, and the charges of “glorifying terrorism” is based on the “Gora Alka-ETA banner.
