Toisen ääniTo Be Human
To be Human is a fable for adults about the aspiration towards goodness. There are a brother and a sister who won’t leave their home because they are caring for their disabled brother. The sister wouldn’t harm an ant, while the brother is waiting for someone to tell him what he wants.
There is Maria, whose children live with their father. Her motherhood is questioned by strangers on the internet and straight to her face. She does not understand the choice the siblings taking care of their brother have made.
There are a father and a son who have not met in a decade. The son carries with him the dream of a father whom he has never had. The father carries with him a feeling of guilt that he may never even want to give up. The father lives on his memories and traumas of being a soldier stationed in Cairo during the Suez Crisis.
The beautiful and enigmatic play turns small stories into a large vision about grace, unity and humanity.
