An optimistic refugee arrives in a country that\u2019s a complete nervous wreck, hoping to start a new, peaceful life. But in his efforts to fit in, he gets caught up in a series of unfortunate events. An abandoned baby lands in his lap, and the two set out on a journey of mutual growth that will teach them about life and its beauty.<\/span><\/p>\n

This piece of physical theatre communicates solely through visual language, and demonstrates the power of silence. It explores the conflict between gentleness and violence, the clash between naivety and manipulation. The protagonist is an outsider, an artist who suddenly finds himself in the reality we all live in \u2013 an extremely dense, intensive, stressful, and sometimes absurd reality. He tries to connect with people and fit in, but struggles greatly because it is an aggressive society. Obviously, this sense of suffocation reaches a point where you no longer need to speak because there\u2019s nothing left to say. Anything you say sounds a bit clich\u00e9d, so maybe it\u2019s better not to say it but simply narrate it.<\/span><\/p>\n

The show received a recommendation from the National Culture Basket\u2019s Theatre Repertoire Committee and the Israel Association of Community Centers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
