A mythical tale reimagined in a contemporary key: a tavern keeper from a Galician port —mother of monhilista Cadaval— comments on the Oedipus myth while dismissing the classical version and sharing her roasted-meat recipe. Gastronomy, epic narrative, high culture, gossip, psychoanalysis and surprising stories about the Spanish monarchy come together in a seventy-one-minute monologue that is as frantic as it is tragi-ridiculous.
