A starving person stands by a lonely campfire, having made musical instruments out of junk and rolling his last days towards death, blowing tunes.
Suddenly, other people begin to arrive at the campfire, wanting to warm themselves in order to survive. In the campfire circle, they remember the stories of old times, which they tell each other. The stories unite them and a small hope arises. Will they be able to maintain the fire and hope, or will greedy and arrogant human nature prevail in them?
A post-apocalyptic storyteller-theater performance based on the fairy tales of the Finno-Ugric peoples, where the stories are not only told, but rather acted out. The characters of the stories take on roles on stage and the events are conveyed through objects and movement. The performance, with its gloomy content, is aimed more at an adult audience or young people from the age of 14.
