A wry, grotesque and tragic-comical story about three generations of the same family, in which incest, violence and alcoholism have been permanent ingredients. Parents and grannies appear in flashbacks from a traumatized past before the two youngest members of the family and thus create the schizophrenic reality which a visiting psychiatrist attempts to penetrate. An outstanding piece of Icelandic drama staged in Ottawa and St. Petersborg; at the Soho Theatre in London and at The Schaubühne in Berlin.
