Omschrijving

During a European theatre project for minority languages, three creators form a strong bond as they search for identity and inclusion. For all three, the minority language is not their mother tongue, but their longing for it is all the greater. As they struggle to master these languages, stories of social taboos, religious exclusion, and suppressed cultures come to the surface.

Dutch documentary filmmaker Murk-Jaep van der Schaaf (1985) follows Wessel de Vries (Frisian), Inger Birkelund (Kven), and Christophe LeMenn (Breton) on their inner journey through Friesland, Brittany, and northern Norway. Along the way, LeMenn and Birkelund discover a profound connection in their troubled pasts. Can they heal something by creating theatre in their nearly lost languages?
