Guillem Clua:‘What makes us human? For Amelia, a deeply wounded mother, what makes us humans is the capacity to feel other’s pain as your own. When an indiscriminate attack happens, we are all victims who have to deal with the same crossroads: hate or love. Our world depends on the direction we decide to take’ (Guillaume Clua)
The music was written specifically for this play by Yannis Katsikandarakis.
