Exploring the complexities of colonialism, a Peruvian journalist delves into her family's intertwined history with both colonizers and the colonized. Alone in a Paris museum, she confronts the legacy of her great-great-grandfather, an Austrian explorer who looted pre-Columbian artifacts from her homeland.

Qué locura enamorarme yo de ti es una obra de teatro que reflexiona sobre los modelos familiares y el estatuto romántico. Fiel a su poética del relato personal descarnado, la escritora Gabriela Wiener aterriza discursos acerca del poliamor, la no monogamia y los vínculos relacionales en su propia experiencia. Aquí operan tanto las pulsiones emocionales como políticas de su autora, y ese encuentro, que a menudo es una confrontación, da luces sobre el dolor, la mentira, los celos y, finalmente, el amor.
