The purpose of this article is to establish the common characteristics, from the expressionist point of view, between the play by Friedrich Dürrenmatt, La visita de la vieja dama, and the Argentine film directed by Gastón Duprat and Mariano Cohn, El ciudadano ilustre. In both works, the protagonist is the victim of the cruelty of the people from the village to which they belong and are subjected to the degradation of their surroundings and themselves. This study will look at the ideological background, thematic and the dominant dramatic and scenic techniques in both works that make them a continuation of the past expressionist movement
