A touching and beautiful theatre performance about illness and the vulnerability of life. What happens to you and your loved ones if you become ill and need help? The theatre performance brings up experiences and emotions that are not often spoken out loud. At the same time, the performance is a celebration of loved ones and talks about caring, compassion and hope in a moment of fragility.

The performance is not only about illness but is relatable in many ways. For one person, falling can mean lying face down on the ground after the end of a relationship, and for another, the pain and shame of losing your job. In addition to personal experiences, the theatre performance is a social statement on the status of the sick and disabled: Why do vulnerable people and minorities remain invisible and marginalised – become discriminated against?

The performance is based on a book of the same name by docent, writer Hannele Cantell.
