Loin de Linden

A young man tries to decipher what lies at the roots of his identity. No choice, he must go back up the thread of time, listen to the stories of before, those that allowed his own story to exist. This is how he orchestrates the meeting, tinged with dreaminess, of his grandmothers. Eugénie and Clairette: two women who are opposites in every way, whose paths barely crossed in real life. But now their grandson takes possession of the family history, now he summons Eugénie and Clairette and provokes the collision of their worlds. Words are gradually released: they intertwine, clash, sing in chorus, astonish.\nIn Eugénie's kitchen, the theater of this timeless dialogue, we are invited to listen to all the words, even those that are difficult to say.\n"Loin de Linden" is a text of rare intensity. Veronika Mabardi's pen takes us on a great journey full of humanity.
