Our protagonist arrives at the old family farmhouse with the intention of selling it. In the attic, her former place of refuge and labyrinth of games, abandoned objects bring back memories of the past. The “spirit” of the house also lives up there. Like in an old trunks of souvenirs, we find the grandmother’s song, work in the fields, the parties, the weddings… an emotional journey to one’s roots.
A playful, moving and poetic reflection, with strokes of humour and visual surprises that bring us closer to what we have been and to what has made be who we are. An attempt to highlight and pay tribute to the value of women as the essential foundation of this farmhouse.  
Since its beginnings more than 30 years ago, the Basque company Markeliñe has focused on theatre of gestures and visual theatre in the street and on stage for adults and children. Thanks to its original, imaginative and astonishing creations, full of surprise and irony, the company has consolidated its presence in the Spanish and international world of theatre.
