One Sea

Theater play about dementia with Lucas Van den Eynde, Marieke Dilles, David Cantens, Mathias Vergels, Ann De Winne and Lotte Stevens. After the once so sparkling André has also chased away his last home nurse, his daughter Anne sees no other way out than to take her dementing father into her home. The care for André puts the relationship between parent and child under high tension. What follows is a confusing labyrinth in which truth and fiction become increasingly difficult to distinguish from one another. 'De Vader' is a psychological drama that casts an intimate look at the crumbling reality of a man with dementia. An intriguing family portrait in which the limits of 'loving' and 'unconditional love' are driven to their extreme. How do you communicate with someone who experiences a different reality? How do you slowly say goodbye to someone who no longer recognizes you?
