“I could have changed the history of Spain, but I didn’t want to.” This is how Sofía’s monologue begins in “Le ordeno a usted que me quiera”. Emilio Ruiz Barrachina rescues from oblivion the figure of this young woman, the first unrequited love of the Generalísimo, a frustrated romance with profound implications and interest.
The play is situated between the melancholy of “Doña Rosita la soltera” and the intensity of Carmen Sotillo from “Cinco horas con Mario”, offering a unique perspective on a historical and personal passage.
