Synopsis
The play shows how parents and children grow apart because of the lack of a mutual language, and how parents suffer as a result of their futile efforts to understand their children and being uprooted. The main characters are a single mother and her teenage son. In addition to the play's tragic aspects, there are also some glistening touches of humour.
