When Sophia’s mother dies, Sophia confronts half-forgotten traumas from her childhood. Sophia and her sister Emma grew up in a war torn country. The two young girls cope with and escape their grim circumstances – the adult world of war, death and displacement – through the lens of fairy tales. As the fighting draws nearer, the family is forced to flee their home and make a dangerous journey into a forest. Sophia’s child’s-view version of their flight includes mystical horrors. As Sophia tries to protect her sister Emma from the evil in the forest, she makes a fatal mistake that forever changes the course of their lives.

Rooted in improvisation, they move freely through the space with their instruments, offering an immersive experience.

In the summer of 1642, Rembrandt buried his wife and muse, Saskia Uylenburgh, in the Oude Kerk. Every year on March 9th, precisely at nine minutes past eight-thirty in the morning, a sunbeam illuminates her grave. This special moment is annually commemorated with a breakfast, music, and a lecture.
