A pregnant woman fantasises about the future life of her unborn daughter. One thing is certain: that future will be far from unproblematic. Sea levels are rising, the rain is endless, there is a constant flow of mud, and the earth is shrivelling. Nature has demanded to have the world back. Follow her journey in this beautifully written, poignantly moving play.
