In the dark world that lies somewhere between life and death, where souls pass on their way to another, there lie the ghosts of those who drowned. Most of them sleep now, but some are unable to rest.
Unable to sleep, they come to life as restless souls who mourn their past and unrealised dreams that will never be theirs. What happened to their ship; why were they all drowned?
This is a visual portrait of memories, dreams and the unanswered questions of those who die at the hands of others. Dreamlike and surreal, the stories and fate of those who never get to tell their stories come to life at the bottom of the sea.
The play is based on the true story of a tragedy that happened in 1997 when an Albanian ship carrying refugees sunk off the Italian coast. |
