Based on the classic script and novel by Dutch author Cyriel Buysse.
This is an original and warm performance that evokes both anger and sadness at the misery caused by poverty,
poverty causes in a strong and resilient family.
The fate of the entire Van Paemel family over several generations is brought to life by one actor through the clever use of technology.
Part of STAND ALONE Festival
During STAND ALONE Festival, we present both Danish and international, captivating performances performed by one actor.
