Stories in the Dark
In a shattered world, a young boy's journey becomes intertwined with a teenage girl's quest for her mother. Together, they find solace in the ancient wisdom of folk tales amidst the ruins of war and destruction.
In a post-apocalyptic, war-torn city, a 12-year-old boy separated from his family meets Anna, a 16-year-old searching for her mother, in an abandoned warehouse. Together they navigate the destroyed landscape seeking food, water, and their families. At night, Anna shares folk stories to provide comfort and escape. The production blends the magic and earthly wisdom of folk tales with the harsh reality of a nation in conflict. Contains mature themes and language.
