Description

“What do tears taste like?” In a story that balances on the edge between reality and fantasy, Anaïs, an introverted 9-year-old girl, discovers after the loss of her beloved grandmother that no tears flow from her eyes. Accompanied by a peacock, she sets off on a journey to a parallel world at the core of the earth, one that connects the past with the future. There, in the underground waters, she will encounter ancient forms and deities from other civilisations, and will try to solve the riddle that will restore the natural flow of the earth’s waters and reconnect her with the deep roots of her family. The waters of the world, held by the Goddess Anahita, depend on the tears of a little girl. Three girls, using objects that can be found in a child’s bedroom, will narrate this magical adventure – and together with the children in the audience, they will discover the interlinking thread that connects the sources of human emotion with the sources of the earth.
