Amid the flurry of machinegun fire and exploding bombs, a soldier in his trench receives an unexpected visit from his parents who wish to have a Sunday family picnic in spite of the scene of war that surrounds them. Another soldier (the enemy) appears and willingly becomes a prisoner of war in order to join them. Friendly conversation ensues and as they celebrate this picnic as a possible end to the war, cruel reality strikes a blow. Recognized as one of the best known works of Arrabal’s absurdist period, we are honored by his presence at Book Fair.

Attempting to escape from justice, Leandro and Crispin arrive at a city with nothing to their name but Crispin’s ingenuity. As they try to survive, Crispin cunningly decides they must take on new identities and ultimately pursuit riches through Leandro’s marriage to Polichinela’s daughter. Indebting themselves in the process, Crispin must convince the loaners, and even the law, that fulfilling their own interests is more important than upholding justice.
