description A group of jews from different origins are shut-in a barrack of Auschwitz. They are aware that they will be executed in a gas chamber at dawn. Confronting their somber destiny, they wonder why Jehova doesn´t help them. Someone accuse God for having broken the alliance with the jew people. The debate acquires the form of a judjement to God, so as to determine if he is guilty or innocent of betrayal to the Chosen People. God on trial staged the problem of the position of man confronted to horror, cruelty and injustice. But above all to the figure of God, and the varied possible respons –denial, cinical, despare, étical- in the face of it´s absence.

They are aware that they will be executed in a gas chamber at dawn. Confronting their somber destiny, they wonder why Jehova doesn´t help them. Someone accuse God for having broken the alliance with the jew people. The debate acquires the form of a judjement to God, so as to determine if he is guilty or innocent of betrayal to the Chosen People. God on trial staged the problem of the position of man confronted to horror, cruelty and injustice. But above all to the figure of God, and the varied possible respons –denial, cinical, despare, étical- in the face of it´s absence. Un grupo de judíos de diverso origen son encerrados en una barraca de Auschwitz. Saben que serán ejecutados en una cámara de gas al amanecer. Confrontando su sombrío destino, se preguntan por qué Jehová no los ayuda. Alguien acusa a Dios de haber roto la alianza con el pueblo judío. El debate adquiere la forma de un juicio a Dios, para determinar si es culpable o inocente de traicionar al pueblo elegido. Juicio a Dios pone en escena el problema de la posición del hombre confrontado al horror, la crueldad y la injusticia. Pero sobre todo ante la figura de Dios y las diversas posibles respuestas –denegatoria, cínica, desesperada o ética- ante su ausencia.
